What is Lupus?
Lupus is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks healthy tissue. Normally, the immune system identifies and attacks bacteria, viruses, toxins, and more. In autoimmune diseases like lupus, the immune system mistakenly identifies healthy tissue as posing a danger. The body then launches an immune response against the healthy tissue. The immune response generally involves inflammation that, over time, can cause significant damage to joints, skin, muscles, connective tissue, and even major organs.
