Lupus erythematosus, hailed by the medical community as an alternative type of cancer, causes individuals with lupus to have a weakened immune system. And pediatric lupus erythematosus is also a disease that worries parents a lot. In clinical practice, pediatric lupus erythematosus is no different from adult symptoms. So, what are the symptoms of pediatric lupus erythematosus? Let's learn about it together.
1. People with lupus erythematosus generally have red rashes on their faces, which is also the origin of the name of this disease. Also, because these red spots mainly spread from the nostrils to both ends, resembling butterflies, they are also called butterfly spots.
2. People with lupus erythematosus are prone to blood accumulation in the lower limbs, especially in blood vessels, due to impaired blood circulation, which can lead to the appearance of redness or dark purple spots on the skin. Especially at lower temperatures, such spots are more pronounced.
3. This condition can lead to a weakened immune system in the human body, and patients may experience colds and fevers due to minor issues. And due to the damage to the immune system, such patients are prone to death from the invasion of some small viruses.
4. Many patients often find themselves feeling tired, even after resting for a long time, they still feel unable to lift their spirits. Moreover, people with this disease often have kidney problems in the later stages, which can lead to diseases such as uremia.
