Understanding Lupus; Symptoms, Diagnosis And Treatment

Alternative Options For Lupus Patients

Other options are available for treating lupus, but they are not yet medically tested or proven so doctors cannot prescribe these methods of treatment to their lupus patients. There is some traction behind taking Omega-3 supplements, with some patients claiming they found relief in this method and are able to live a bit more comfortably. Acupuncture is another technique that is gaining recognition for relieving lupus symptoms. Although it should only be handled by a professional, there is no reason a patient cannot reap the benefits of acupuncture at any time. However, it is always helpful for lupus patients to first discuss these types of lifestyle changes with a medical professional.
