What is Lupus disease?
Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease where the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks its own tissues and organs. It can affect the skin, joints, kidneys, heart, and brain, leading to widespread inflammation and damage. While the exact cause is unknown, genetics, hormones, and environmental factors play a role. Symptoms vary widely and can range from mild to severe. Early detection and consistent management with medications and lifestyle changes can help individuals lead a healthier life despite the challenges of lupus.
