Symptom #10: Skin Problems
Some autoimmune diseases are known for causing skin problems. Psoriasis is a good example of an autoimmune disease that contributes to skin problems – in this case, skin cells begin to multiply far too quickly, and they can form dry, scaly patches.
Often associated with this are itchiness, swelling, and stiffness in the joints. There are many topical anti-inflammatory lotions that can be useful to help someone with psoriasis manage their conditions. Fortunately, psoriasis is not fatal and can be put into remission with proper care.
