Autoimmune Disease

Autoimmune disease is a condition in which the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks healthy cells, tissue, and organs. This can cause a wide range of complications and symptoms, depending on the type of autoimmune disease present. Common complications of autoimmune diseases include joint pain, fatigue, organ failure, and skin rashes.

Joint Pain

Joint pain is a common symptom of autoimmune diseases. This can range from mild to severe and can affect any joint in the body. This type of pain can be caused by inflammation of the joint due to an immune attack, or by damage to the cartilage and other structures of the joint.

Fatigue

Fatigue is another common symptom of autoimmune diseases. This can range from mild to severe and can be caused by a number of factors. This can include the body’s immune system attacking healthy cells and tissue, as well as the side effects of medications used to treat the autoimmune disease.

Organ Failure

Organ failure is a serious complication of autoimmune diseases. This can occur when the immune system attacks healthy tissue and organs, resulting in damage or destruction of the organ. Organ failure can lead to further complications, such as infection, severe weakness, and even death.

Skin Rashes

Skin rashes are a common symptom of autoimmune diseases. This can range from mild to severe and can be caused by an immune system attack on the skin. It can cause redness, itching, and swelling of the affected area. In some cases, the rash may also blister or cause open sores.
