Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi my friend developed swollen feet and hands this past week. She has never had a problem with swelling. Now she has developed a rash on arms legs and torso. Bones ache like the flu. She went to dr and is going to get blood work. Are these signs of lupus?
I have gone through your complaints and it doesn’t seem to be symptoms of lupus. It could be a simple viral infection also. Blood work up will help in reaching to the diagnosis.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Asmeet Kaur Sawhney,
