WHAT IS SARCOIDOSIS?
PRONOUCE: SAR-COY-DOE-SIS
Sarcoidosis is an
inflammatory disease that may affect many different parts of the body. Small
round spots, called granulomas, form in various organs. The spots hinder normal
functioning of those organs. The lungs are the most commonly affected organs.
Granulomas in the lung leave less space for the air exchange that needs to take
place. This can cause the lungs to stiffen. Other commonly affected organs are
the skin, eyes, liver, and lymph nodes. Rarely, the brain may be affected.
Causes Scientists do not know what causes sarcoidosis. It seems to be related
to malfunctioning of the immune system. The disease may possibly be triggered
by an infection or exposure to a toxin in the environment. Some people may be
more susceptible to sarcoidosis due to genetic or environmental factors. Risk
Factors A risk factor is something that increases your chance of getting a
disease or condition. Risk factors for sarcoidosis include: ■Age: 20 to 40 ■Sex: female AND MALE ■Ethnic descent:
African-American, Northern European, Scandinavian, and Irish Symptoms. Symptoms
vary and can occur in different parts of the body, depending on where the
granulomas form. Most symptoms develop in the lungs, skin, eyes, and liver.
Multiple body systems may be affected. Symptoms may come and go. This disease
is often acute, but in some patients it is chronic, waxing and waning.
THIS INFORMATION IS FOR ANYONE WHO HAS SARCOIDOSIS OR KNOWS
OF SOMEONE WITH THIS AUTO-IMMUNE DISORDER.
