I think that in addition to whatever skin lesions that are directly attributable to RSD, with the the trophic skin changes that sometimes occur in varying degrees, those changes can open the door for secondary and opportunistic infections, lesions, bumps and things that are not otherwise well described in the literature and wouldn't otherwise be something that we would have had to deal with absent RSD. Just my humble opinion....
