What Causes Pain In Smaller Joints Of Hands And Feet?
I am Arnab Basu, 33 years of age, have been suffering from pain on smaller joints of finger of hands and feet. Doctor has diagnosed it as Psoriatic Artharitis. Generally pain occurs once in a week and sustains for 2 days. I have just started taking Sazo 500 (twice daily) and Naproxen as SOS. My questions are: 1) Whether I have to take those medicine life long for arresting pain or inflammation? 2) What are the possible side effects of these medicines?

Hi,
For the first question sometimes you could take the medication for maybe 1 to 2 month depending from the signs but you should be in contact with the rheumatologist because of the adverse effect that they have. Sazo has different side effects from nausea, dizzines cough, and eye problem. You have to be careful if you have for example an infection. Call you doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Rezart Cipi
