    immune system attacks skin, causing inflammation and abnormalities

    Autoimmune Skin Diseases, also known as Autoimmune Dermatological Disorders, are conditions where the body's immune system mistakenly attacks its own skin cells, leading to inflammation, rashes, blisters, or other skin abnormalities. Examples include psoriasis, vitiligo, and lupus erythematosus. These diseases can cause significant discomfort and may require treatments like immunosuppressive medications to manage symptoms.
