In this episode of The Autoimmune RESET, VJ delves into the complexities of scleroderma, an autoimmune disease that affects the skin and connective tissues.
VJ explores the different scleroderma types, focusing on CREST syndrome, a subtype of limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis.
Discover the key symptoms, including calcinosis, Raynaud's phenomenon, oesophagal dysmotility, sclerodactyly, and telangiectasias, and learn how they distinguish CREST from the more severe diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis.
VJ also discusses the role of specific antibodies in diagnosis and examines natural therapies that can help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
