Understanding Vasculitis & Rare Connective Tissue Disorders
Vasculitis is a group of disorders characterized by inflammation of blood vessels, which can affect multiple organs and tissues. Rare connective tissue disorders, such as scleroderma and mixed connective tissue disease, involve the immune system attacking connective tissues, leading to systemic complications. Early diagnosis and specialized care are critical to prevent organ damage, manage symptoms, and improve patient quality of life. Our approach combines advanced diagnostics, medical therapy, lifestyle guidance, and patient education to provide effective, individualized care.
Causes & Symptoms
The exact cause of vasculitis and rare connective tissue disorders is often unknown, though autoimmune and genetic factors play a key role. Symptoms may include:
- Fatigue, fever, and malaise
- Skin rashes or lesions
- Joint pain and swelling
- Organ involvement such as kidneys, lungs, or heart
- Muscle weakness or stiffness
Treatment Options
- Medication: Immunosuppressants, corticosteroids, and disease-specific therapies to control inflammation.
- Monitoring & Support: Regular follow-ups, lab tests, and organ function monitoring.
- Lifestyle & Therapy: Nutrition, exercise, and symptom management strategies.
- Patient Education: Awareness of disease triggers, flare management, and long-term wellness planning.
