What is Scleroderma?

Scleroderma is a rare condition where overproduction of collagen thickens connective tissue.  The name means “hard skin” and this is one of the most common and visible symptoms of the disease.  The presentation of scleroderma varies from individual to individual.  It is not contagious, infectious, or cancerous.  It is estimated that 300,000 Americans and 17,000 Canadians have scleroderma.
