What is Sarcoidosis?
Sarcoidosis is a chronic, inflammatory disease that causes the formation of granulomas (small aggregates of inflammatory cells) in organs, most often the lungs, lymph nodes, skin, and eyes. Eventually, these granulomas can disrupt normal organ function.
It is an autoimmune disease, where the immune system reacts too strongly and attacks normal tissues by mistake.
Sarcoidosis Symptoms
Sarcoidosis Symptoms depend on the affected organs but can include:
General Symptoms:
- Fatigue
- Fever
- Weight loss
- Night sweats
- Lung Involvement (Most Common):
- Persistent dry cough
- Shortness of breath
- Chest pain
Skin Symptoms:
- Erythema nodosum (tender, red lumps, usually in the legs)
- Skin rashes
- Nodules
Eye Symptoms:
- Redness
- Dry eyes
- Blurry vision
- Eye pain
Other Organ Symptoms:
- Swollen lymph nodes
- Enlarged liver or spleen
- Arrhythmias (heart)
- Neurological ailments (in rare cases)
Sarcoidosis Causes
The Sarcoidosis Causes is obscure, but presumed causes are:
- Malfunction of the immune system
- Hereditary susceptibility
- Environmental exposures (dust, chemicals, mould)
- Infections (viral or bacterial antigens may induce the formation of granulomas)
Sarcoidosis Treatment(Conventional)
Treatment of sarcoidosis traditionally works to suppress the immune system and decrease inflammation:
- Corticosteroids (Prednisone)
- Immunosuppressants (Methotrexate, Azathioprine)
- Biologics (Infliximab for resistant cases)
- Symptomatic treatments (breath inhalers, pain relievers, drops for the eyes)
Issues: Prolonged steroid therapy has the potential for osteoporosis, diabetes, infections, and hormonal imbalances.
Homeopathic Sarcoidosis Treatment
Homeopathy attempts to modulate immunity, reduce the formation of granulomas, and restore the function of the organs without suppression of the natural defence mechanisms of the body.
