Vasculitis comes in a variety of forms, but this particular illness is unusual. Some are transient or acute, while others are persistent or chronic. The most frequent cause of vasculitis is an immune system error in which the blood vessels are attacked. This may occur in response to a particular medication, an infection, or an underlying illness. The precise cause is often unknown.
As a result, many people believe vasculitis to be an autoimmune condition. Just some variations of the disorder are categorized as autoimmune conditions due to the fact that the disease's precise origin is yet unknown. Vasculitis can also be a symptom of autoimmune and rheumatic conditions like scleroderma and rheumatoid arthritis that already present.
The kind of vasculitis, the severity of the vasculitis, any other medical conditions, how well the patient has reacted to treatment thus far, and the data supporting the best treatment currently available will all influence the course of Vasculitis Treatment for a given patient (see section below on clinical trials and research). This implies that patients who on the surface may seem to have the same ailment may receive quite different therapies.
