Reactive arthritis is a condition that can be triggered by an infection in the body, often affecting the knees, ankles, and lower back. While the exact cause may vary, the inflammation that occurs can result in intense pain and stiffness, making it difficult to carry out daily activities. Treatment for reactive arthritis focuses on reducing inflammation, controlling pain, and addressing the infection that may have triggered the condition. Anti-inflammatory medications, disease-modifying drugs, and antibiotics (if necessary) are often prescribed to alleviate symptoms. In addition to medications, physical therapy can play a vital role in helping you maintain joint function and mobility. The sooner you seek treatment, the better the outcome, as early intervention can prevent the arthritis from becoming chronic.
