The news of Zhou Haimei's death due to ineffective treatment is deeply regrettable, and the lupus erythematosus that followed the hot search has also been widely discussed, what is lupus erythematosus?Does it really not work?And why are they more inclined to attack young women?
Lupus erythematosus is called in traditional Chinese medicine"Red butterfly sores".It is named because of the butterfly-shaped erythema that can appear on the cheeks during an attack, and the name "lupus" is because the red spots on the face look like they have been bitten by a wolf.
Modern medicine believes that lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease that involves multiple organs and systems in the body, with complex clinical manifestations and repeated course of the disease.
WhileIn the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, lupus erythematosus is classified into the categories of "Zhou Bi", "butterfly spots", and "yin and yang poison"., mainly due to the deficiency of true yin, the loss of kidney yin, blood stagnation and meridian blockage. Because the disease involves multiple systems and organs, the clinical symptoms are diverse, and the classification and syndrome differentiation of the disease in traditional Chinese medicine are relatively complex, including the hot and toxic type, the liver and kidney yin deficiency type, the spleen and kidney yang deficiency type, and the rheumatic fever paralysis type. For different types of syndrome differentiation, the method also has its own emphasis, so it is necessary to strictly follow the doctor's diagnosis and plan. How much do you know about lupus erythematosus The current reality is that lupus erythematosus cannot be ** for the time being**, but this does not mean that we are helpless, through early diagnosis and personalization**, we can minimize the deterioration of the disease and reduce the degree of organ damage.
Western medicine often uses drugs such as glucocorticoids and immunosuppressants to control the disease, while traditional Chinese medicine mostly relies on comprehensive methods such as traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, and acupoint injection. This combination of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine helps patients with lupus erythematosus to get the most benefits.
As an autoimmune disease, lupus erythematosus is not clear at present, but according to epidemiological investigations, it is related to the secretion of estrogen in the human body, under normal circumstances, the secretion of estrogen in women is much greater than that of men, so in terms of gender ratio, female patients account for almost more than 80%, and most of them occur at the age of 20 49, which is also the most vigorous stage of female estrogen secretion.
In addition, the incidence of lupus erythematosus is also related to genetics, and for lupus erythematosus patients, their children and relatives, the incidence of lupus erythematosus is several times higher than that of others. In addition, environment, infection, drugs, and immune abnormalities can all be predisposing factors for lupus erythematosus.
Lupus erythematosus is more common in young women, but it also accounts for a significant proportion of children, and the latest epidemiological data show that the global incidence of systemic lupus erythematosus is 04 100,000 06.1 million, of which 15 per cent are children under 16 years of age. Compared with **, the condition of the child group is more critical, and the organ damage is more severe. Typically, lupus erythematosus (SLE) has a specific manifestation in children:
The most prominent are systemic symptoms, including fever, fatigue, lymphadenopathy, and weight loss. ** In 50% of children, butterfly erythema and other rashes, erosions and other manifestations may be present, and erythema and ulcers may even be seen on the oral mucosa.
In addition, about 70% to 80% of children present with arthritis and joint swelling and pain. About half of the children may have kidney damage, which is manifested by abnormal urine output, hematuria, and edema. Another 40%-60% of children may develop digestive problems, such as abdominal pain and diarrhoea, which of course need to be differentiated from acute abdomen.
If the child has the above related symptoms, parents must be vigilant and take the child to the doctor for diagnosis in time to avoid suffering from lupus erythematosus.
Lupus erythematosus does not only attack young women, but also young and old, it can creep in, if there are symptoms, early diagnosis, early intervention. May patients face the disease bravely and embrace a bright future again.
