Patient's question:
Is hair dyeing harmful to patients with systemic lupus erythematosus? Or does it alleviate the condition?Doctor's answer:
Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus cannot have their hair permed. They should avoid contact with allergenic substances and minimize hair perming, as frequent perming can lead to repeated enlargement of the erythema area and alleviate kidney function damage. It is recommended to consume foods that support kidney protection and promote skin recovery, such as kiwi, grapes, peanuts, pure milk, walnuts, Chinese yam, etc. Avoid living in damp environments frequently and undergo regular follow-up checks for kidney function.
