The hair often thins and can become patchy when lupus is active and it will usually regrow as the disease is bought under control. This is not the case in discoid lupus as already discussed when the scars left by the skin rash leave permanent bald areas. Sometime drug treatment can make the hair thin in lupus patients.
The neurological symptoms include headaches, depression, seizures, cognitive dysfunction, mood disorder, cerebrovascular disease, polyneuropathy, anxiety disorder, psychosis, and in some extreme cases, personality disorders.
Lupus erythematosus (LE) of the skin comprises an uncommon group of skin disorders. They most often affect young adult women (aged 20 to 50) but children, the elderly, and males may be affected.
