“What Is Wrong With Selena’s Face”? #lupus Prednisolone, a corticosteroid medication, can lead to a puffy face as a side effect. Prednisolone belongs to a class of drugs known as glucocorticoids, which are potent anti-inflammatory agents. When prednisolone is taken orally or administered through injections, it alters the body's immune response and suppresses inflammation, making it useful in treating various conditions, such as asthma, autoimmune disorders, and allergic reactions. However, prednisolone can also cause fluid retention, particularly in the face, leading to facial swelling or puffiness. This occurs due to the drug's effect on the body's electrolyte balance and fluid regulation. Prednisolone increases the reabsorption of sodium and water in the kidneys while reducing their excretion, which can result in fluid accumulation in different parts of the body, including the face. The puffiness of the face caused by prednisolone is often temporary and reversible once the medication is discontinued or the dosage is reduced. However, it's essential to consult with a healthcare professional before making any changes to the prescribed medication regimen. #Prednisolone #Corticosteroid #PuffyFace #SideEffects #AntiInflammatory #Glucocorticoid #Medication #FluidRetention #Inflammation #Asthma #AutoimmuneDisorders #AllergicReactions #OralMedication #Injection #ImmuneResponse #FluidRegulation #ElectrolyteBalance #TemporaryEffect #HealthcareProfessional #Consultation #celebrityhealth #selena #selenagomez #selenagomezvideos #doctor #medicine #interesting #interestingfacts #interestingvideos #interestingthings

Prednisone causes this puffiness, appreciate her bravery.

People need to leave her alone regarding her looks already.

Auto immune disorders are no joke. You get one and for sure, you can expect another. The medicine for some of the auto immune disorders make you gain weight, retain water and feel tired. Selena is beautiful and so gracious to share her real life moments with her fans. Please respect and appreciate her for the beautiful warm person she is.

I’ve been on prednisone for 35 years due to rheumatoid arthritis…it is definitely a face rounder. I love Selena and appreciate all of her brave videos.

[bernieheartdragon]

Alot of people who suffer with autoimmune diseases can relate and see it in her. It gives them hope and makes it feel like they aren't alone.

i also have lupus & take prednisone from time to time. i sometimes look like a totally different person because of the puffiness/weight gain. she still looks so beautiful & i love how she’s open about her lupus journey.

So true. I’m like Selena. I have lupus with stage four kidney failure (along with multiple different organ issues. Had surgery on both eyes to prevent me from going blind, had brain surgery two days after the eyes, liver is going bad etc). Prednisone will swell THE FUCK out of you.

Also, long term prednisone use will cause weakness of the bones (brittle bones/oesteopersis). I know from experience since I am dealing with this as well, 5 features/breaks in 2-3 years. Hope Selena doesn’t have to take prednisone long term like I had

She looks absolutely stunning and youthful ❤

[asiab.]

this is EXACTLY why you should never comment or say something about someone’s appearance & body. You never truly know the reasons, or what they are going through. You might bring something up that causes them to be insecure or depressed.

[dreadedstill]

id say that the plumpness in her face makes her look youthful! she’s absolutely gorgeous

[KelzGlover]

She has, and FOREVER will be absolutely breathtakingly beautiful.

[Girlinboness]

Your face is so beautiful and bright. There is not a single stain, it is smooth, no pores are visible. She has such beautiful skin.

[aneeshasingha]

As a lupus patient myself, my face structure has changed a lot after the diagnosis of the disease. My face is rounder and puffy cheeks along with frequent redness, it's just something that comes with the disease.
Same like Selena, my weight has been a struggle, it's fluctuates a lot. One moment it's stable and the other it's increasing rapidly.

[kiifdys]

Not a damn thing is wrong with her face, absolutely gorgeous

[AugustSlippedAway]

She is absolutely beautiful inside and out. Selena is a gem and we should all be as brave and strong as her!

[reenie]

She’s such a gorgeous girl and always will be. It’s so wicked how people bully her! I know being on the receiving end of it myself it doesn’t feel good. A lot of people hate themselves and reflect that onto others and it shows.

Lupus also causes you to hold an excessive amount of water weight, as well as just swelling in general. I get mine all over my body but my hands and feet are the worst. I can’t even wear my own shoes sometimes, that’s how bad it gets.

[nobodyelse]

Even with a "puffy" face she looks absolutely gorgeous. I could never-

[meghanncox]

you are beautiful.. even w lupus you still pull it off... without makeup here.. you are beautiful.. your heart is the most beautiful.. you are a soldier.. God bless you and keep you and yours.. ✌️ ❤️ 😊

I was FINALLY officially diagnosed with lupus 7 years ago. My Rheumatologist determined that my first lupus attack was on my kidneys when I was 16. I had it for 40 years undiagnosed and misdiagnosed and now my entire adult life makes sense
