What Is Morphea?
4. Generalized Morphea
In addition to the discolored patches, some patients will also find that these patches grow harder than usual. These patches can become more widespread, with new patches forming in different parts of the body. Some of these patches can come together to form larger patches.
This is a condition known as generalized morphea and it will mean that the condition is no longer simply an aesthetic condition. As the condition spreads, so it will mean that the patient is increasingly covered in skin that is less elastic than it used to be. This can cause the patient to begin losing their mobility.
