Qual a diferença entre artrite psoriática e psoríase?

A psoríase, ou Pso, é uma condição causada por um desequilíbrio (algo que corre mal) no sistema imunitário e normalmente afeta a pele. Cerca de 30% das pessoas com Pso desenvolvem artrite psoriática, ou PsA, que afeta as articulações e a pele. É mais provável que surja artrite psoriática se tiver psoríase ungueal (unhas), embora possa aparecer antes ou ao mesmo tempo da Pso. Com a artrite psoriática, as articulações, por exemplo, nos pés ou mãos (chamada entesite ou dactilite), entre outras, podem apresentar rigidez, inchaço, fadiga e dor, limitar os movimentos e causar danos permanentes caso não seja tratada. A artrite psoriática pode afetar pessoas de qualquer idade, mas normalmente começa entre os 30 e os 50 anos e afeta homens e mulheres de igual modo.
