RESUMO
Recurrent erythema nodosum leprosum (ENL) is a type 2 leprosy reaction, which often poses a challenge for the treating physician. Patient may be non-ambulatory due to systemic symptoms like fever, body aches, joint pains, and painful skin lesions. Moreover, drugs like corticosteroids and thalidomide in refractory cases pose an increased risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). We have described a case who developed DVT in due course of the treatment.
