What is Lupus nephritis?
Lupus is a disease that can affect any organ system with the kidneys being one of its main targets. Talking about Lupus nephritis, it's a serious and at times fatal complication of lupus caused by inflammation in the kidneys which makes it hard for our kidneys to properly remove waste from the blood or control the number of fluids in the body.
