"Life is as good as the first time I saw it", unfortunately I heard the news of the death of actress Zhou Haimei, and many people mentioned that she suffered from "lupus erythematosus" before her death, which made this word rush to the hot search, so what kind of disease is lupus erythematosus?

According to statistics, lupus erythematosus is a severe blow almost every time it occurs, and it is called "immortal cancer", which may accompany the patient for a lifetime. At the time of onset, there are generally the following manifestations:

The most typical manifestation is the appearance of butterfly erythema on the face, which is caused by ** vasculitis. In addition, patients may also have discoid erythema, periungual erythema, etc.;

Patients may also experience symptoms such as joint pain, arthritis, etc., which are caused by the immune system attacking the joint tissues. In addition, symptoms such as fever, fatigue, and weight loss may occur.

It may seem like it's manifesting in **, but in fact it's an immune disease, not a disease. There are also different factors that lead to the onset of lupus erythematosus, and there are three main types:

Genetic factors: Lupus erythematosus has a certain familial aggregation, so genetic factors are one of the important factors of lupus erythematosus.

Environmental factors: Environmental factors such as ultraviolet exposure, certain drugs, chemicals, etc., can also induce lupus erythematosus.

Immune factors: Abnormalities in the immune system are at the heart of lupus erythematosus**. Lupus erythematosus occurs when the immune system attacks its own tissues.

Systemic lupus erythematosus is one of the most serious lupus erythematosus, studies have shown that patients with the onset age of about 30 years old, at the age of 55-60 years, more than half of them die, so this is a very vigilant immune system disease, there are suspected symptoms, it is recommended to go to the local hospital in time for corresponding examinations, to avoid unnecessary panic caused by misjudgment.

However, so far, there is no clear evidence that Zhou Haimei's death is directly related to lupus erythematosus, so I hope everyone looks at this issue rationally, does not believe in rumors, does not spread rumors, and is also a kind of respect for the deceased.
