Pretibial myxedema is a skin condition that can happen in people with thyroid problems, especially Graves' disease. It usually causes the skin on the front of the lower legs to become thick, swollen, and bumpy, sometimes with a waxy or tight look. It may itch or feel uncomfortable, but it is not contagious.
Symptoms such as non-pitting leg edema, pretibial plaques and itching may be signs of pretibial myxedema. When these symptoms persist, worsen, or interfere with daily activities, medical evaluation can help determine the underlying condition and the need for treatment.
At Medicover Hospitals in Kakinada, experienced endocrinologists evaluate and treat patients with pretibial myxedema. Based on the diagnosis, severity of the condition and individual health needs, our doctors recommend suitable treatment and ongoing care.
