Detailed explanation-1: -Cushing syndrome occurs when your body has too much of the hormone cortisol over time. This can result from taking oral corticosteroid medication.
Detailed explanation-2: -Cushing’s syndrome is caused by constant, high levels of cortisol, a key glucocorticoid hormone. The growth of a tumor on one of the two adrenal glands causes about 15% of all cases of Cushing’s syndrome. Adrenal tumors secrete cortisol and may be benign (noncancerous) or malignant (cancerous).
Detailed explanation-3: -The most common cause of Cushing’s syndrome is the long-term, high-dose use of the cortisol-like glucocorticoids. These medicines are used to treat other medical conditions, such as asthma link, rheumatoid arthritis link, and lupus link. Glucocorticoids are often injected into a joint to treat pain.
