Step-by-step explanation:

In this undifferentiated connective tissue disease the body by mistake attacks its own tissues. Joint achiness, hair loss, rashes(usually on the face), etc are the symptoms of this disease. Evidence of an existing autoimmune disease confirms the presence of undifferentiated connective tissue disease. Antimalarials and corticosteroids can be used in the therapy.
