Psoriatic juvenile idiopathic Arthritis (JRA) primarily affects the joints, causing inflammation, pain, stiffness, and swelling. It can also involve the skin, leading to red, scaly patches known as psoriasis. In severe cases, psoriatic JRA can impact growth and development, as well as overall quality of life for the affected individual. Treatment typically involves a combination of medications, physical therapy, and lifestyle modifications to manage symptoms and prevent long-term complications.
