-> Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder in which antibodies are produced against the synovial membrane and cartilage.
-> Vitiligo causes white patches on skin also characterised as autoimmune disorder.
-> Psoriasis is a skin disease that causes itchy or sore patches of thick red skin and is also autoimmune.
