Eosinophilic Granulomatosis
Eosinophilic Granulomatosis, also known as Churg-Strauss syndrome, is a rare autoimmune condition characterized by inflammation of blood vessels, leading to damage in various organs. It often involves an increase in eosinophils, a type of white blood cell, which can cause symptoms such as asthma, skin rashes, and sinus problems.
The exact cause of Eosinophilic Granulomatosis is not fully understood, but it is associated with allergic reactions and certain medications. Diagnosis typically involves blood tests, imaging studies, and sometimes a biopsy. Treatment usually includes corticosteroids and other immunosuppressive medications to manage inflammation and symptoms.
