(Newswire.net — October 29, 2014) Pompano Beach, FL — According to the Lupus Foundation of America, Lupus is a chronic, autoimmune disease that can damage any part of the body – skin, joints or any organs inside the body. This is no ordinary illness, symptoms can last for months and in most cases years.

Some of the symptoms associated with lupus includes excessive pain and swelling in the joints, Red embarrassing rashes usually found mostly in the face and scalp, chest pains, hair loss, pale fingers or toes, confusion, dizzy spells and sensitivity to the sun. People diagnosed with the diseases are extra sensitive to the sun’s UV rays. This sensitivity is called photosensitivity. Effects of the sun on lupus patients includes bright rashes across the nose and cheeks after exposure to the sun, severe joint pains and fatigue.

The rashes and other issues related to photosensitivity can be avoided. Here are three very effective ways that lupus patients can deal with sun exposure. Firstly, invest on the right sunscreen face and body. Sunscreen containing SPF 30 is ideal for persons with this special kind of skin condition. It’s best to use sunscreen on a daily basis or whenever the body comes into contact with the sun. Taking into consideration that sweating and clothing can remove the sunscreen applied, walking with a bottle of sunscreen is ideal

Another way to limit the effects of the sun on lupus is to try avoiding the sun as much as possible. Walking in the sun with umbrella, walking in the shade, even choose the times to run errands can be very helpful. The sun rays is most harmful in the day. Simply avoid the doors as much as possible in the day time.

Another tip would be to select clothing that covers and protects most of the skin. It may not always be fashion forward but it is better to protect oneself than to be concerned about what is fashionable. Long sleeved shirts, long pants, light material can help to shield the sun rays from the skin.
