About Systemic Sclerosis (Limited), the broader condition
This overview covers Systemic Sclerosis (Limited) in general, not Systemic Sclerosis (Limited - CREST) specifically.
Limited systemic sclerosis, often called CREST syndrome, is a chronic autoimmune condition affecting the skin and internal organs. While there's no cure, managing symptoms is key.
Limited systemic sclerosis, also known as limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis or CREST syndrome, is a form of scleroderma, a chronic autoimmune disease. It's characterized by the overproduction of collagen, leading to hardening and tightening of the skin, primarily affecting the fingers, hands, forearms, face, and feet. While it can also affect internal organs, it typically progresses more slowly and is less widespread than the diffuse form of systemic sclerosis.
The acronym CREST helps remember its key features: **C**alcinosis (calcium deposits under the skin), **R**aynaud's phenomenon (spasms of blood vessels in fingers and toes), **E**sophageal dysmotility (difficulty swallowing), **S**clerodactyly (skin thickening on fingers and toes), and **T**elangiectasias (small red spots on the skin caused by dilated blood vessels).
The broader condition is Systemic Sclerosis (Limited).
