Generalized morphea is a rare fibrosing skin illness that progresses from erythematous, violet-colored skin patches to sclerotic plaques. Another uncommon immune-mediated connective tissue disease called eosinophilic fasciitis (EF) evolves to cause sclerosis and woody skin induration. The coexistence of the two is extremely rare and has a poorer prognosis. Our case report is one of the first to report burn injuries as a trigger factor for EF and generalized morphea overlap.
