Papular mucinosis (also known as Scleromyxedema Generalized lichen myxedematosus and Sclerodermoid lichen myxedematosus) is a rare skin disease. Localized and disseminated cases are called papular mucinosis or lichen myxedematosus while generalized confluent papular forms with sclerosis are called scleromyxedema. Frequently all three forms are regarded as papular mucinosis. However some authors restrict it to only mild cases.
