Hi,
Based on the history you have shared, you need to recheck uric acid levels as with psoriasis sometimes they tend to increase too and may cause such symptoms. Otherwise, inflammatory arthritis may present with flares for which it will need anti-inflammatory drugs as well as steroid pulses. Rheumatologist review is recommended.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
