Causes of Psoriatic Arthritis

Causes of Psoriatic Arthritis
Experts aren't sure what causes psoriatic arthritis, although they do know that having skin psoriasis is the biggest risk factor. As many as 30% of people with psoriasis go on to develop psoriatic arthritis. You may also be more likely to get psoriatic arthritis if you have skin psoriasis that affects your nails. About 80% of people with psoriatic arthritis have some kind of nail psoriasis.

Genetics is another risk factor. About 40% of people with psoriatic arthritis have a family member with psoriasis or another form of arthritis. But experts believe that environment can also play a role, and some think an infection such as strep throat may kick-start the immune system, causing psoriatic arthritis to then develop.
