Lupus
Lupus is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues. One of its most characteristic manifestations is a red, butterfly-shaped rash on the face, particularly on the nose and cheeks.
In addition to skin lesions, lupus can also damage internal organs: the heart, lungs, and joints. Symptoms often worsen with sun exposure. Therefore, people with lupus should use high-SPF sunscreen and avoid direct sunlight.
🩺 What to do if you notice red spots on your skin
Do not self-medicate – even a seemingly harmless spot can hide a serious problem.
Make an appointment with a dermatologist, especially if the spots do not disappear within a few days.
Avoid scratching and irritating the affected areas, as this can lead to secondary infections.
Pay attention to other symptoms: fever, joint pain, fatigue or itching.
🌿 Tips for healthy skin
Cleanse and moisturize your skin daily.
Use sunscreen even in winter.
Adopt a balanced diet, rich in vitamins A, C and E.
Avoid excessive use of perfumed products and harsh detergents.
Drink plenty of water – good internal hydration is key to healthy skin.
In conclusion,
Our skin reflects our health. Any change, whether it’s a small pimple or redness, is a warning sign that shouldn’t be ignored. Consulting a dermatologist early on can help prevent serious illnesses and maintain healthy, clear, and radiant skin.
