As a result, people became more negligent or indifferent to the concept of the disease. This condition often leads to misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis on the early diversity or atypical signs and symptoms of leprosy. It will increase the disability rate if the patients with leprosy do not get timely and correct treatment. We report a mother and daughter suffering from leprosy of different types, and one with elephantiasis-like lepromatous leprosy.</p>
