Autoimmune disorders occur when the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks its own healthy cells. While the exact causes of these disorders remain unknown, they can affect various parts of the body. Common autoimmune diseases include rheumatoid arthritis and polymyalgia rheumatica, which involve multiple joints, multiple sclerosis, which primarily affects the spinal cord, and Hashimoto's disease, which targets the thyroid gland.
Acupuncture, homeopathy, and Chinese herbal medicines are used to treat symptoms of various autoimmune disorders. Acupuncture is commonly applied for conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis. Homeopathic remedies are often used for Hashimoto's disease and Sjögren's syndrome. Chinese herbal medicine is frequently utilized for rheumatoid arthritis and lupus.
