Investigating barriers and challenges to the integrated management of neglected tropical skin diseases in an endemic setting in Nigeria.

Individual, structural and socioeconomic challenges to access and delivery of services were identified. Community and health care workers' empowerment and engagement through outreach and regular training, respectively may alleviate these challenges.
