Patient's question:
I have been experiencing frequent dizziness lately, and I can't seem to eat properly either. My mental state hasn't been great either. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it's a blood-related issue. Could you please tell me what can control the progression of Beh?et's disease?Doctor's answer:
It can affect multiple organs in the human body, including the mouth, skin, blood vessels, heart, and lungs. Microscopic changes in blood vessels are distributed beneath the basal layer of the oral mucosa. These changes are caused by pathological damage to the mucosa. The oral mucosa is the first line of defense of the human immune system. When the mucosa suffers pathological damage, the immune system weakens. As a result, the mucosal tissue engages in self-attack and self-destruction, losing its protective ability, and forming chronic lesions in the basal layer beneath the mucosa.
