Patient's question:
My good friend has been diagnosed with lupus. Whenever I see her in pain, I feel the pain too. Recently, I noticed that I have red spots on my hands, and I want to ask if having red spots on the hands is a sign of lupus?Doctor's answer:
Lupus is an autoimmune disease. Although it has a certain hereditary predisposition across generations and may be associated with certain viral infections, it is not a contagious disease. It will never spread from person to person. Lupus is an autoimmune disease, and there is currently no possibility of a cure. It is recommended that your friend seek regular medical treatment, undergo regular prenatal examinations, pay attention to rest, and maintain a regular schedule.
