My name is Nikki. The good news is that most of you will not have cancer. I will share with you information that I have gleamed from medical abstracts and medical articles on LyP. Also available is a glossary of medical word dictionary definitions you will run into, but might not understand. In some cases, lymphomatoid papulosis progresses to lymphomatous conditions including mycosis fungoides , Hodgkin's disease , cutaneous T-cell lymphoma , or anaplastic large cell lymphoma . In other words, if you leave them alone, they eventually go away by themselves.
Some lesions are small, round, shiny and smooth.
Other are large, open to the air, gooey and have a crust in the middle. Some leave scars and some do not. Some leave flat scars and some leave keloid scars. The colors range from pinkish red to pinkish brown and purple. If you would like to see photos of LyP skin lesions please check out DermIS .
