The effects of lupus ery­the­ma­to­sus can par­ti­cu­lar­ly affect ado­le­s­cents, as they are in a pha­se of inten­se phy­si­cal and emo­tio­nal deve­lo­p­ment. The dise­a­se can impact young peo­p­le’s self-esteem, espe­ci­al­ly if they have visi­ble sym­ptoms such as skin ras­hes or swel­ling. Deal­ing with the demands of school life can be made more dif­fi­cult by the dise­a­se, which can lead to pro­blems at school and in social activities.
