Description

Australian researchers reportedly discovered a way to correct a lupus-causing flaw.

About Lupus

  • It is an autoimmune illness in which your immune system attacks organs and tissues throughout your body. 

  • It creates inflammation, which can harm your skin, joints, blood, kidneys, lungs, and heart. 

Causes

  • The cause of lupus is uncertain. It is believed to be the result of a combination of genetic, hormonal, and environmental influences.

  • Lupus is far more frequent in women than men.

  • There are various types of lupus.

  • The most prevalent kind is systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). It might be minor or severe, affecting multiple regions of the body.

  • Discoid lupus generates a persistent red rash.

  • Subacute cutaneous lupus creates lesions after being exposed to the sun.

  • Certain medications can cause lupus. It generally goes away when you stop taking the medication.

  • Neonatal lupus is a rare condition that affects newborns. It is most likely induced by specific antibodies from the mother.

Symptoms

 Lupus can cause a variety of symptoms that range from person to person. Some of the most common ones include-

  • Pain or swelling in the joints

  • Muscle ache

  • Fever with unknown cause

  • Red rashes, usually on the face (also known as the "butterfly rash")

  • Deep breaths cause chest pain.

  • Hair loss

  • Pale or purple fingers and toes

  • Solar sensitivity

Treatment

  • There is no cure for lupus, although medications and lifestyle modifications can help manage it.
