Lupus is a lifelong disorder of the immune system.  Immune cells attack the body's own healthy tissues, leading to inflammation and tissue damage.  Symptoms may be limited to the skin, but often lupus also causes internal problems such as joint pain.  In severe cases, it can damage the heart, kidneys, and other vital organs.  Although there's no cure, there are treatments that can minimize the damage.
