Epidermolysis Bullosa with Karen Thackray, DEBRA UK and Lisa Irvine
Manage episode 467999903 series 3465393
Karen Thackray from DEBRA UK and Lisa Irvine joined us to discuss the rare skin condition epidermolysis bullosa (EB), sometimes known as butterfly skin.
Lisa and her daughter live with EB and offer first-hand insights into the genetic skin condition that causes painful blisters. Karen breaks down the four main types of EB and their varying impacts. Through our conversation, we aim to raise awareness and foster a deeper understanding of EB as a dynamic disability that causes severe pain, as well as the emotional toll of constant adaptation to manage and care for the skin and judgement of strangers.
