What is Vasculitis Disease?
Vasculitis refers to inflammation of the blood vessels, including capillaries, veins, and arteries. Vasculitis interferes with the flow of blood, resulting in damage to the tissues and organs. Vasculitis disease is acute or chronic and mild or severe, depending on the organ and vessel affected.
Vasculitis Symptoms
Vasculitis Symptoms are variable according to the affected organ systems, but the common presentation includes:
- Fever and tiredness
- Inexplicable loss of weight
- Joint and muscular pain
- Nerve problems (numbness, weakness)
- Skin rashes or ulcers
- Shortness of breath
- Kidney issues (blood in urine)
- Swelling, redness, or pain in the legs (particularly in vasculitis of the legs)
What is Vasculitis of the Legs?
Vasculitis of the legs is inflammation of the blood vessels that supply the lower limbs, commonly leading to:
- Red or purplish painful skin patches
- Ulcers or non-healing wounds
- Swelling and cramps in the legs
- Peripheral neuropathy (numbness/tingling)
It can be caused by cutaneous vasculitis, polyarteritis nodosa, or small-vessel vasculitis.
Vasculitis Classification
Vasculitis is usually categorized by the size of the involved blood vessels:
Type | Examples |
Large-Vessel Vasculitis | Giant Cell Arteritis, Takayasu Arteritis |
Medium-Vessel Vasculitis | Polyarteritis Nodosa, Kawasaki Disease |
Small-Vessel Vasculitis | Wegener’s (GPA), Microscopic Polyangiitis, Henoch-Schönlein Purpura |
Conventional Vasculitis Treatment
Treatment is conventional according to severity and includes:
- Corticosteroids (e.g., Prednisone)
- Immunosuppressants (e.g., Methotrexate, Cyclophosphamide)
- Biological agents (e.g., Rituximab)
- Painkillers and anti-inflammatories
These can be side-affected by immune suppression, weight increase, osteoporosis, or renal damage. Therefore, homeopathy is a safer adjunct or alternative, particularly in chronic or mild to moderate cases.
