Every year on May 10, World Lupus Day shines a light on lupus, a chronic autoimmune disease affecting over 50 lakh people globally. Lupus is often invisible, with symptoms like fatigue, joint pain, and skin rashes mistaken for other illnesses. Early diagnosis and awareness are key to managing this complex condition and improving quality of life.
