Joint pain with psoriasis is easy to brush off until it starts affecting your daily life. We sit down with Mark Lebwohl to break down the early warning signs of psoriatic arthritis, from nail pitting and heel pain to swollen “sausage” fingers and morning stiffness. We also explain how doctors diagnose it, why it is often mistaken for osteoarthritis, and why catching it early matters.
We also unpack the rapidly changing treatment landscape, including biologics that protect joints and improve skin disease, plus the major role inflammation and obesity play in worsening symptoms. If you have psoriasis and unexplained aches or swelling, this episode gives you a clear roadmap for what to watch for and what questions to ask next.
