Discoid lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disorder affecting the skin. The disorder causes a skin rash or lesions that usually appear on the scalp, nose and cheeks. Loss of hair and changes in skin pigment also occur with this disorder. Permanent scarring can occur as lesions regress. Discoid lupus erythematosus is more common in women than men and appears to have a familial linkage. Having discoid lupus does not guarantee that you will develop systemic (body-wide) lupus erythematosus, a far more serious autoimmune disorder that can damage many different organs.
Rhinosinusitis is the inflammation of the nasal passages and sinus cavities. It is usually caused by allergies or an infection. It causes a combination of symptoms of rhinitis, (the medical term for nasal symptoms), and sinusitis, including: Runny nose. Post nasal drip.
Migraineurs often report headache triggers that are common triggers of rhinosinusitis like: weather changes, seasonal change, and allergen exposure. Also, both sinus headaches and migraines can occur on both side of the head (bilaterally) or one side of the head (unilaterally). Although, migraines are more commonly unilateral. Also, similar to sinus pain, migraineurs can have pain in their maxillary or cheek areas.
