Scleroderma

📖What is Scleroderma?

Scleroderma is a chronic autoimmune disease that causes the body to produce excess collagen, leading to hardening and tightening of the skin and, in more severe forms, internal organs such as the lungs, heart, kidneys, and digestive tract. It ranges from localized forms that primarily affect the skin to systemic sclerosis, which can be life-threatening due to organ involvement. The condition is more common in women and typically develops between ages 30 and 50. Its course and severity vary considerably between individuals.
