Sarcoidosis

What is Sarcoidosis?

Sarcoidosis is an inflammatory disease that causes small clusters of immune cells, called granulomas, to form in the lungs and sometimes other organs. These granulomas can affect how the lungs work and cause chronic cough or shortness of breath.

How is it Diagnosed?

Diagnosis often involves chest imaging (X-ray or CT scan), blood tests, and tissue biopsy to confirm the presence of granulomas and rule out other conditions.

How is it Treated?

Many cases improve without treatment, but persistent or severe cases may require corticosteroids or immunosuppressive drugs to control inflammation. Regular follow-up with a pulmonologist helps monitor lung function and prevent complications.
