Patient's question:
A few days ago, I heard that my uncle was diagnosed with connective tissue disease. I'd like to ask a few questions: How is connective tissue disease treated? Is connective tissue disease very serious? I haven't heard of this disease before. Which type of connective tissue disease is the most serious?Doctor's answer:
There is no exact ranking at present, as there is currently no treatment for autoimmune diseases, which requires long-term medication control. Severe patients may lead to organ dysfunction issues. The main differentiation direction of undifferentiated connective tissue disease is systemic lupus erythematosus and systemic sclerosis. Of course, many of them will never change. This is mainly based on one's own condition. Currently, as long as the treatment is systematic, the majority of patients can still control their condition.
