You really should address this with your lupus specialist.

Peringual refers to being situated around a fingernail or toe nail.

Oedema is swelling.

Sometimes this refers to chilblains lupus erythematosus, a form of cutaneous lupus ie not systemic lupus erythematosus.

You can find information at LUpus Patients Understanding & Support (LUPUS): the LuPUS Message Board:
