Sarcoidosis

Sarcoidosis is a rare inflammatory disease that causes tiny clumps of immune cells (granulomas) to form in various organs, most often the lungs, lymph nodes, eyes, and skin. The cause is not fully understood, but it’s believed to be triggered by an abnormal immune response to unknown substances. While some people recover without treatment, others may require long-term care to manage symptoms and prevent complications.
