Psoriatic Arthritis (eBook)

Psoriatic arthritis is an inflammatory condition that affects the joints and skin. It's similar to other types of arthritis, such as rheumatoid arthritis, but it's also associated with psoriasis.

Psoriasis is a condition that causes patches of thick, scaly skin. People with psoriatic arthritis often have psoriasis on their skin before they develop joint problems. In some cases, joint problems may start before the skin problems.

Psoriatic arthritis can cause pain, stiffness, and swelling in the joints. It can also lead to joint damage and disability. The exact cause of psoriatic arthritis is unknown, but it's thought to be related to an immune system disorder. Treatment typically involves medications to reduce inflammation and relieve symptoms. Physical therapy may also be helpful.

Diet and lifestyle changes can also play a role in managing psoriatic arthritis. Some people find that certain foods trigger their symptoms, while others find that certain foods help to reduce inflammation. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to diet and psoriatic arthritis, but there are some general guidelines that may be helpful.
