Lupus (health)


Lupus is a chronic disease in which the body's immune system, instead of serving its normal protective function, forms antibodies and cells that attack healthy tissues and organs. Discoid Lupus affects the skin, causing a rash and scars, most commonly on the face and upper parts of the body.
