Autoimmune diseases usually do not usually have a simple, single cause. There are usually two major factors that are involved in causing them: genetics and environment. Genetics - Even with a genetic connection to autoimmune disease, there is no guarantee that you will develop an autoimmune disease. Something must turn on your immune system to trigger an autoimmune response. Environment - Environmental factors make up more than half the risk of developing an autoimmune disease.

Do you mean, why should you avoid aspirin or ibuprofen while taking blood thinners? If yes, I think that aspirin and ibuprofen have a similar effect on the blood. Taking â¦ both could cause the blood to become too thin and to not clot when it's necessary, like when there's been an accident. I am not a doctor or nurse, but I do have some other training (personal care aide). Also, a close relative and a former client of mine have been on blood thinners before.
