Recognizable Symptoms Of Lupus
Skin Rash

Skin rashes are one of the most prominent symptoms of lupus. Approximately fifty percent of people with lupus experience a butterfly-shaped rash over the bridge of the nose covering both cheeks on the face. The rash may occur just before a flare-up or after overexposure to sunlight. People with lupus may also develop lesions on other parts of their body, such as arms, legs, neck, stomach, back or feet. These lesions usually do not itch, and they are not contagious but can they be embarrassing.
