Scaly Skin
July 29, 2009
Imagine being afraid to pick up your child because any pressure on her skin could cause blisters and pain. That's a reality for the little girl you're about to meet. She has a genetic condition called epidermolytic hyperkeratosis. Her skin looks scaly and tough, but it is so sensitive even clothing hurts.
