Dermatitis: Scleroderma is not a skin disease. It is an auto-immune disease which causes inflammation and scar tissue formation in the connective tissue which is just under the skin. There are many presentations, but it often initially presents with tightness around joints of the hands or feet. See your doctor for diagnosis.
