Lupus
Lupus, also known as SLE, or systematic lupus erythematosus, is classified as an autoimmune disorder, which occurs when the immune system attacks its own tissues.
Lupus is typically characterized by joint pain, fatigue, and a butterfly-shaped rash appearing across the cheeks and nose. Lupus can affect any part of the body, including vital organs.
