Introduction:

Autoimmune diseases are a group of complex and diverse medical conditions that occur when the immune system, which is designed to protect the body from harmful invaders like bacteria and viruses, mistakenly targets and attacks healthy cells, tissues, and organs within the body. Instead of distinguishing between self and non-self, the immune system identifies certain parts of the body as foreign and launches an immune response against them.

This immune response can lead to inflammation, tissue damage, and dysfunction in various organs and systems, depending on the specific autoimmune disease. There are more than 80 known autoimmune diseases, each affecting different parts of the body and manifesting in unique ways.
