Toni Braxton on Lupus Awareness
“We have Lupus, but Lupus doesn’t have us” — Toni Braxton
Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease that can affect various parts of the body, especially the skin, joints, blood, and kidneys. However, Lupus can affect any major organ inside the body. With Lupus, something goes wrong with the immune system, which is part of the body that helps fight infections like bacteria, viruses, and germ.
The two most common types of Lupus are, Systemic lupus and Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus. The most common of the two, systemic lupus, involves more serious complications of major organs.
