Autoimmune Disorder
Obsessive-compulsive disorder can also be a consequence of autoimmune disease. This condition causes dysfunction and inflammation in your basal ganglia. As a result, people with this health issue might gradually develop obsessive thoughts or compulsions. Autoimmune disease is directly associated with PANDAS or streptococcal infections. There are many drug or medication options to help alleviate the symptoms of this condition. However, this is still a rather common health issue for the general population. [6]
