Brilio.net - Kartika Putri had made the public worried about her health condition. Through his Instagram story some time ago, he showed off a portrait of his face where a rash suddenly appeared.
Not only that, several areas such as the forehead, under the eye bags, cheeks and nose have wounds like blisters. The same condition also occurs on the tongue, inner cheeks, and the roof of the mouth. As a result, Kartika Putri's weight decreased and her breast milk production was hampered.
Unfortunately, the condition of the woman who is familiarly called Karput has sparked various rumors. Even so, he immediately provided clarification.

According to Karput, he has been suffering from an autoimmune disease for the last five years. The rash and blisters he suffered were caused by a drug allergy.
"I've been diagnosed with autoimmune for about 5 years, but thank God so far it's fine," said Kartika Putri, quoted by brilio.net from Instagram @kartikaputriworld, Sunday (25/2).
However, Karput explained that when the immune system is down it will have an impact on the condition of rashes and blisters like the one he is currently experiencing. Habib Usman bin Yahya's wife revealed that her condition had been going on for about a week.
"Well, the trigger for what I experienced was that some time ago, for about a week, I was taking pain killers, and it turned out that my body's reaction actually turned against me," said this 33 year old woman.
Karput also admitted that what happened to him was known as Steven Johnson Syndrome (SJS) . This disease is an allergic reaction characterized by rashes and blisters on the skin, lining of the eyeballs, oral cavity, and even spreads to the anus and genitals.
"So what I experienced was Steven Johnson Syndrome, and this is very normal, especially for people who have autoimmune," he continued.
He also went to a dermatologist in Jakarta and got oral medication and ointment. Unfortunately, the medicine didn't work well so he had to go to Singapore.

After treatment in Singapore, Karput felt the difference. He admitted that the wound was no longer painful and he could eat.
"I went and then I was given medicine and cream. Thank God, it's really better now. It turned out that just gargling with salt water in my mouth got better. Especially the medicine I took, the pain disappeared and everything," he said.
Karput explained the reasons for sharing the problems he was experiencing with netizens. This is because he wants to provide education on how to treat Stevens Johnson Syndrome.
"Why do I dare share it with all of you, because I don't want you to experience what I experienced and I also want the reaction to be quick so that it doesn't get too bad for you," he concluded.

At the end of his writing, Karput promised to share about the treatment and medicines he consumed.
