[Avodah] Medicine for a Metzora

[Cantor Wolberg]

"Anyone know if a Metzora is allowed to seek medical attention and/or  
take
medication for his symptoms?"

Since a Metzorah is not a physical condition, there is only one  
Physician (the RSO) Who can cure it
and the only medication for the symptoms should have been utilized  
prior to the tzaraas which is
Shmiras Haloshon.  Also, the term leprosy for this condition is  
misleading since it leads one to think
it is a medical condition.
