MODEL RELEASED. Psoriatic arthritis. Close-up of the hand of a 61-year-old man affected by psoriatic arthritis,also known as psoriatic arthropathy. Arthritis is a disease that attacks the joints. Chronic inflammation leads to the destruction of the cartilage,bone and ligaments,which causes the joints to deform. Psoriatic arthritis also causes symptoms of psoriasis,a chronic skin disorder (dermatosis) where excessive growth can lead to scaly,thickened patches of skin. Here it is also beginning to affect the growth of the nails | |
