Psoriatic Arthritis
Psoriatic arthritis is a form of inflammatory arthritis that affects people with psoriasis, a chronic skin disease. It is characterized by joint inflammation, which can cause pain and swelling in and around the joints, as well as stiffness and decreased range of motion. Psoriatic arthritis affects the skin, joints, and other organs throughout the body, and may lead to disability if left untreated. Treatment options include physical therapy, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs). Early diagnosis and treatment can help improve symptoms and reduce the risk of long-term joint damage.
