Mycobacterium lepromatosis or Mycobacterium leprae causes leprosy and Hansen's disease (HD). A granulomatous disease, leprosy is the most common form of leprosy. Reddish lesions on the skin, loss of sensation, and muscle weakness are typical symptoms of leprosy. Muscle numbness is primarily caused by nerve damage. As a communicable disease, leprosy can be transmitted through contact with the cough or phlegm of an infected individual.
