What are the symptoms of vasculitis?
Disease description:
I have been feeling cold in my body lately, which is very uncomfortable. After an examination, the doctor told me it is vasculitis. I would like to ask, what are the symptoms of vasculitis?

Common symptoms of vasculitis include:
1. Limb pain: Pain may occur especially after physical activity or in cold environments, possibly presenting as intermittent claudication, which refers to the need for rest due to pain after walking a certain distance.
2. Skin changes: The skin may become pale, cold, or develop pigmentation; in severe cases, ulcers or necrosis may occur.
3. Numbness or tingling: Areas affected by reduced blood supply may feel numb or have a prickling sensation.
4. Weakened pulses: During examination, pulses in the hands and feet may be weaker than usual or difficult to detect.
5. Systemic symptoms: Nonspecific symptoms such as fever, weight loss, and fatigue may appear, indicating the presence of a systemic inflammatory response.
Note: If these symptoms occur, especially if they persist or progressively worsen, prompt medical attention is advised.
