Significance of Connective Tissue Disorder
Connective Tissue Disorder encompasses a range of conditions affecting tissues that support and connect organs throughout the body. These disorders often involve immune dysregulation, chronic inflammation, and abnormal growth. They can manifest as arthritis, contribute to conditions like frozen shoulder, and may be linked to diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. Connective tissue disorders can also present risks during pregnancy, potentially leading to kidney complications, and have been noted as a possible post-COVID symptom in some cases.
