Systemic lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune condition, a condition where your body's own immune cells mistakenly attacks its own tissues, resulting in widespread inflammation and damage in the affected organs. It can affect the skin, joints, brain, lungs, kidneys and blood vessels. The exact cause is unknown, but could be environmental, genetic and hormonal factors.
Lumps under the skin
Scaly skin that flakes off
