Patient's question:
I am 53 years old. Recently, as I have gotten older, I have been experiencing leg pain. I have previously visited the immunology department, but the results were not significant. I have taken both Chinese and Western medicine, especially when the weather changes, I feel uncomfortable. Can systemic lupus erythematosus be treated?Doctor's answer:
Systemic lupus erythematosus, as the most common autoimmune disease, is difficult to heal completely on its own. If detected early, symptoms can be effectively controlled through oral corticosteroids. Generally speaking, there are no very specific solutions for it. If symptoms persist and worsen, early follow-up and treatment at a regular hospital are necessary. As the child grows, symptoms may continue to improve. Actively participate in physical exercise, regulate physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene.
