Results. Among 206 people with leprosy, the frequency of CMD was 70.4% (95%CI 61.10;76.67) associated female sex (PR=1.29 – 95%CI 1.09;1.53), age ranges 26-45 (PR=1.52 – 95%CI 1.09;2.11) and 46-60 (PR=1,52 – 95%CI 1.09;2.11), low income (PR=1.25 – 95%CI 1.05;1.49), and unsatisfactory quality of life for physical (PR=3.03 – 95%CI 1.12;8.19) and psychological (PR=1.91; 95%CI 1.40;2.61) domains.
