Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) is a genetic skin disease where blistering occurs on the skin and on internal linings such as the mouth and the intestines. It is believed to occur in an estimated one out of every 50,000 births worldwide. Those affected are often described as ‘butterfly children’ as their skin is as fragile as a butterfly’s wings.
