Feedback: The characteristic sign of SLE is a butterfly rash on the face. However, a rash may appear over other body parts as well. Periodic gout attacks are characterized by joint swelling, redness, and severe pain. Scleroderma is considered a collagen disorder that involves chronic hardening and shrinking of connective tissues. In rickets, bones remain soft and become distorted as the child grows. |
