Updated Psoriatic Arthritis Leaflet

The last to launch in our series is our updated Psoriatic Arthritis leaflet.

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) a form of arthritis which affects the joints and tendons and is closely associated with psoriasis. Nearly 25% of those living with psoriasis can go on to develop PsA. PsA can affect different areas of the body, however, with the right treatments and lifestyle management those living PsA can see an improvement in their symptoms and lead active lives.

The new, vibrant leaflet features authentic images of people living with psoriatic arthritis. The leaflet discusses advice on when to see a rheumatologist (a specialist who deals with conditions which affect the bones and joins) and first-line and second-line treatments.

The resource is ideal to take along with you to any medical appointments to discuss treatment options and whether you may require a referral to a specialist.

The leaflet is now available to view and download online here.
