Clinical Information
- Sarcoidosis is a rare condition that causes granulomas or patches of swollen tissue to appear on the lungs, skin, and lymph nodes. It’s also possible that these granulomas develop in the other organs of one’s body.
- Symptoms vary depending on the organ affected. If the sarcoidosis affects the lungs, symptoms are a dry cough that won’t go away and shortness of breath. On the other hand, symptoms of sarcoidosis affecting one’s skin are patches/tender bumps on the lower legs, arms, and upper body. Should sarcoidosis affect the other organs, some common symptoms are painful joints, tender/swollen glands, red/sore eyes, bone pain, arrhythmia, kidney stones, and headache.
- To diagnose sarcoidosis, a practitioner does a physical exam on the patient and, depending on the suspected affected area may ask the patient to do an x-ray, CT scan, biopsy, and other imaging tests.
- Though sarcoidosis can go away independently, over-the-counter medications, steroids, or immunosuppressants are among the treatments practitioners can provide to the patient.
Synonyms Include:
- Pulmonary sarcoidosis
- Lymph node sarcoidosis
- Acute or Chronic skin sarcoidosis
- Meningitis due to sarcoidosis
- Sarcoid myopathy
