Bridgend: Woman whose skin grows too fast talks about condition

A woman with skin that grows too fast has revealed its devastating effects on her life.

Rhiannon Morgan, from Bridgend, has a rare genetic condition called epidermolytic ichthyosis.

It leaves the 26-year-old prone to blistering and causes significant mobility problems.

Each day she has to apply moisturisers, creams, bandages and special fluffy socks.

“If I miss just one day of my routine then I am going to be very uncomfortable,” she said.
