Progressive systemic sclerosis or systemic scleroderma (SS) is a chronic and rare autoimmune disease that mainly affects the skin and various internal organs. Raynaud's phenomenon and digital ulcers are some of the symptoms that affect the foot, causing a decrease in the quality of life of patients. The objective of this study is to determine the functionality of the feet in patients with SS and determine the impact on their daily lives.
SS is a disease that affects foot functionality in patients, with a greater impact on the pain scale. There is a correlation between the final FFI score and the final SySQ score, so improving foot functionality could help to improve the overall functionality of the patient with sclerosis.
