Understanding Systemic Sclerosis: Symptoms, Diagnosis & Advanced Care
Systemic Sclerosis (Scleroderma) is a chronic autoimmune connective tissue disorder that primarily affects the skin, causing thickening and hardening, and can also involve internal organs such as the lungs, kidneys, heart, and digestive tract. Unlike localized skin conditions, systemic sclerosis occurs when the immune system triggers excessive collagen production. Early diagnosis and targeted treatment are crucial to managing symptoms, preventing organ damage, and improving quality of life. At IRIS Centre for Rheumatology, we offer world-class, patient-centric care for systemic sclerosis using the latest advances in rheumatology.
