Joint Pain, Swollen, Red And Warm Areas Around Joints, Itchy Skin Rash, Swollen Finger
Hi, about 2 days ago I began experiencing joint pain accompanied by redness and warm areas around my joints. My joints also began to swell around my knees and elbows. I also developed a very itchy skin rash around my joints on my skin. Today my fingers began to become still and swell as well. But I do not and have not had a fever . Any ideas?
Hello dear,
This could be a case of "Psoriatic Arthritis" (an inflammatory arthritis). You need immediate medical check up and supervision. Combination of Ice application and exercise for the affected joints might be helpful.
Wish you a better recovery soon.
