Dr. Liu Aihua
Connective tissue disease generally cannot be cured. It is a type of autoimmune disorder that causes systemic symptoms when active. If not treated promptly, it may affect other organs and cause damage. Once diagnosed with connective tissue disease, patients need to control the condition by taking immunosuppressive agents and corticosteroid medications.
