Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects up to 30% of individuals with psoriasis.This condition not only impacts the joints but also intertwines with emotional well-being. Stress and anxiety can exacerbate PsA symptoms, creating a cycle where physical discomfort and emotional distress feed into each other. Understanding this connection is crucial for effective management and improving the quality of life for those affected.
