SO important to talk about this, at medical school we are often shown skin manifestations of systemic diseases only in white people. That is not good enough, we need to be able to recognise and treat medical diseases no matter what colour the skin of the patient is.

Mustapher, Thank you for sharing your story. It’s encouraging to hear from someone who felt like I’ve felt: sick, afraid you’ll never be successful, never get a job or a life, saying you’re on the other side, and those things *aren’t* an impossibility. I don’t have lupus, and have never been nearly as ill as you were, but the emotions are similar for any chronic condition. It helps to hear from a real person that it can get better. Thanks.

I'm a medical student in France btw and these books are supposed to be the reference for the final exam that will make us doctors!!! Does this mean we are only supposed to treat white patients!!!! Thankfully in our many rotations at the hospital we see ppl of all colors/shapes because that is what the real world is!! I hope things change but for it to change we have to keep being vocal about it like you did :) (loved the vid and it made me revise my lupus checklist of symptoms at the same time haha)

Like you said, this is a hugely complicated problem that comes up in basically every avenue of healthcare.. I am a phlebotomist and I know many of my colleagues (me as well sometimes) struggle more on darker skin and tattooed skin. Just like with the lack of images of rashes on darker skin, I think exposure is the root of the problem. We learn on white vein blocks, white dummies, and largely white volunteers. That needs to change, so everyone can have a better experience.

I’m a woman of colour and when I showed 3 doctors my rash, none seemed concerned only concerned with my low WBC count and protein in urine. Was sent to a rheumatologist who took note of rash, along with other symptoms and tests, and few days ago was diagnosed with lupus. When I Googled lupus rash on dark skin there weren’t any good pictures. I can see why doctors were thrown off. Had I listened to my family doctor and not the other doctor in the office who followed up, I would probably be hitting kidney failure.

Very interesting debate - equity in Healthcare. But specific to lupus, if you haven't seen or studied how the malar rash presents on darker skin, then you're not going to recognise it when you do see it. So then, where does the fault lie? With the doctor or with the training the doctor received, or both? Both, in my humble opinion. Lupus is still a condition very much ill understood I think. I'd love if you could do another video on it, and go more in depth on some of the more unusual clinical findings that it presents with sometimes. I'm particularly interested in the neuropsychiatric problems lupus can give rise to. Thank you, in any case, for highlighting both inequity in Healthcare, and the condition, lupus.

I'm not a doctor but I have systemic lupus and also Addison's disease. I'm very fair skinned and my malar rash was pretty obvious on my skin tone at the time of my lupus diagnosis and it still comes and goes to date. Addison's disease is also a condition in which diagnosis must be so much more difficult in some patients with darker skin tones. Although it actually never happened to me, often Addison's patients develop a really deep tan prior to diagnosis - it's one of the classical signs, (although not everyone gets it). I imagine this tan is probably far less obvious on people who have darker skin to begin with. I agree it's so important to have diversity in medical materials to show manifestations of conditions on different colours of skin.

The fact that a lupus video was/is needed to mention 'respecting' differences in others is disrespectful. I personally have been disrespected right here on this channel. I most definitely am NOT 'prejudice.' I recognized from the beginning that "black lives matter" is disrespectful as it specifically implies 'ONLY' "black lives matter." Then someone had to start with me insisting it implies "black lives matter" 'TOO' - which is false. NOW we have all these other "...lives matter" mentions and we can add another to the list, "brown skin matters," which is also disrespectful in the exact same way "black lives matter" is. So, "can doctors diagnose rashes in people of color?" It has been happening for years. It can be harder to diagnose certain things in blacks. "Change is already happening" - change has been happening. What needs to start happening is corruption of 'cops,' racist and otherwise. I simply don't trust that "physicians are LESS COMFORTABLE diagnosing rashes on people of color." IT'S THEIR JOB! The mention that all the pictures found online are of caucasians with rashes implicates whatever source(s) you used are discriminating. I've seen plenty pictures via searching sources and websites implicating otherwise. They could be buried as per how you worded your search(es). That's partly what 'blows' - unless you word people related research specifically, the first couple/few pages of results may not give the needed results.

Can doctors diagnose rashes in blacks? I have managed persistent breastfeeding ductal thrush on my own for the past 3 years because, and I quote, "I'm not gonna treat this." Apparently it wasn't good enough that one nipple was swollen and bright red. Because it wasn't "shiny" it wasn't a yeast infection. I was told, "...just wean him..." as of that would make it go away. At that point it had already crept into my ducts because it actually started when my son was 5.5 months old. It had taken 4 years, he's still nursing, for my immune system to realize it's not supposed to be there and get after it with me. The supplements I have been taken have helped suppress it enough to tolerate but the sensation of broken glass tearing through breast tissue summarizes breastfeeding for us until recently. I had lymph nodes swell up because the infection was so bad. And I can't get treatment because I'm black. But they're worried about me getting covid? Yeah, ok. I think I'll take my chances. I'm on my own anyway.

I definitely learned something! I will make sure that I will study rashes on different skin colours. But in general I will keep in mind, that medicine is mainly based on white male bodies

Medical Apartheid is a common practice. Doctors are often dismissive when people of color complain about pain. No, we're not all trying to score drugs. Contrary to what many doctors were taught, people of color do feel pain. My Lupus was missed for years by a doctor who dismissed many of my symptoms as allergies, telling me to take Tylenol and OTC. hydrocortisone. I was accused of ignoring medical advice when my lab test numbers weren't favorable.

Years ago I had a upper respiratory infection, my primary put me in a drug called Bactrim. Within days I broke out into a Rash, all over my body, it felt like I had the worst flu ever, and I had a very high fever. Along with that I was itching, and then my skin began to break out into blisters. I did not immediately go to the hospital, or to even my primary, why!? Eventually with only one days dosage of Bactrim left, with my eyes blood red, my skin blistered from head to toe, my husband took me to the drs office. I covered my face as everyone was staring. They took my temp at over 105 and the DR said, "Lisa I should have admitted you to the Burn Unit!" I had Stevens Johnsons Syndrome, my insides felt like a sponge soaking up the little of Life I felt I had left. We left his office to drive over a hour away, to a specialised clinic, and immediately met at the door by another Dr who finally knew what I had. I was hooked up to numerous IV's and for hours given numerous IV's. He stated how deathly ill I was. He was NOT happy about the condition that went unnoticed by my primary care physician. To this day I still have the scars, but many things took place at the Center I went to. I was later diagnosed with Lupus, and the antiphospholipid Syndrome. Which triggered a Bilateral Pulmonary embolism, DVT's and TIa's. Currently I have been diagnosed with having a lesion in the brain and the list goes on and on. Patients who are extremely sick, get pretty tired going into hospitals and NOT receiving the proper diagnosis for yet another condition to appear. We won't even get started on how many of the medications can trigger life altering side effects. Medicine has to improve, the teaching has to become more in depth, because every day someone is being misdiagnosed and dying.
