Personalized Care for an Inflammatory Autoimmune Condition
Psoriatic arthritis is a chronic autoimmune condition that affects both the skin and joints. It often develops in people with psoriasis and can lead to stiffness, swelling, and lasting joint damage if left unmanaged. At Azena Health and Longevity, we take a functional medicine approach to psoriatic arthritis treatment by targeting the inflammation at its source and supporting whole-body wellness.
Common Symptoms of Psoriatic Arthritis
Psoriatic arthritis symptoms may vary from person to person and range from mild to severe. They often include:
- Joint pain, tenderness, and swelling
- Morning stiffness or difficulty moving
- Fatigue and low energy
- Psoriasis patches—red, scaly skin, often on elbows, knees, or scalp
- Nail changes (pitting, crumbling, or detachment)
- Inflammation in fingers and toes (“sausage digits”)
- Eye inflammation or vision changes
What Triggers Psoriatic Arthritis?
This condition is autoimmune in nature, meaning the immune system is attacking healthy tissues. Factors that may influence flare-ups include:
- Genetics and family history of autoimmune disease
- Chronic stress and poor immune regulation
- Leaky gut or imbalanced gut microbiome
- Inflammatory diet or food sensitivities
- Infections or immune system overload
- Environmental toxin exposure
