If you have psoriasis, you need to be aware that some people do go on to develop a form of arthritis associated with this skin disease. One out of three patients with the skin disease will develop the joint disease. This arthritis is called psoriatic arthritis.
如果你患了银屑病，你需要注意的是：某些人接着产生一种与这种皮肤病有关类型的关节炎。超过三分之一的患这种皮肤病的人会得关节炎。这种关节炎称为银屑病关节炎。
It usually develops between the ages of 30 to 50 but can even start in childhood. Men and women are equally at risk. People with psoriatic arthritis might not have obvious psoriasis skin findings or they might have minimal scaly red skin on the scalp, in the bellybutton or between the buttocks. Some might just have nail abnormalities and arthritis and no other skin symptoms.
它通常发生在30至50岁之间，但是甚至能从儿童开始。男性和女性之间机率相等。患银屑性关节炎的患者可能没有明显的皮肤癣，或者在头皮、肚脐或臀部有轻微的红色斑疹皮肤。有些可能只有指甲病变和关节炎，并无其它皮肤症状。
80% of those with psoriatic arthritis do have nail abnormalities.
80%患银屑性关节炎病的人有指甲病变。
Symptoms can vary but any joint in the body can be affected and such joints may be swollen and painful. Psoriatic arthritis generally affects the most distant joints of the fingers and toes. It can also affect large joints, such as the hips and knees and about a third of people with psoriatic arthritis also have a stiff painful lower back or neck. In some people, this form of arthritis can affect the same joint on both sides of the body (for example both knees) whilst in others only one knee would be affected.
症状可能不同，但是体内的任何关节都能受到影响，并且这些关节可能肿大和疼痛。银屑病关节炎通常影响手指和脚趾最远端的关节。它也能影响大关节如髋关节和膝关节，大约三分之一患这种病的人同样有腰部和颈部疼痛僵硬症状。在一些人中，这种类型的银屑病能够影响身体双侧的关节如双膝，然而其它人只有单膝受影响。
Eye symptoms can affect some 30% of those with psoriatic arthritis, so regular eye check ups are advised.
眼睛症状能够影响到30%患这种病的人，因此建议作定期的眼部检查。
The exact cause of psoriatic arthritis is unknown although the inflammation of the joints is known to be caused by cells of the immune system that attack the joints and medical studies point to a combination of genetic and environmental factors. About 40% of people with psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis have a close relative with the same condition. And such environmental factors would be illnesses, infections and stress.
虽然关节红肿是由免疫细胞侵袭关节引起，并且医学研究指出这与遗传和环境因素有关，但是银屑病关节炎的确切原因仍不明。大约40%患银屑病或银屑病关节炎的人同这些条件有密切相关性。并且这些环境因素将导致疾病、感染和压力。
Although psoriatic arthritis is a chronic arthritis, in some people it is mild and "comes and goes" whilst in others it can be a persistent arthritis that can cause joint damage if not treated timeously.
虽然银屑病关节炎是一种慢性关节炎，对某些人来说，它很温和并且来去匆匆，然而对另外一些人来说，它是一种持续的关节炎病，如果不及时治疗能造成关节损坏。
Usually the psoriatic arthritis develops in those who have had psoriasis for many years - at least 5 to 10 years. In rare cases if the inflammation is prolonged, the joints can become permanently damaged. Sometimes, psoriatic arthritis is incorrectly diagnosed as gout or can even be associated with gout.
通常银屑病关节炎由那些患了多年的银屑病发展而来——至少5至10年。偶尔如果炎症持续存在，关节能造成永久损坏。有时，银屑病关节炎被误诊为痛风或甚至与痛风有关。
Obviously, the quality of life to be enjoyed by someone with psoriatic arthritis will depend on which joints are involved together with the severity of the symptoms. You need to watch out for tiredness and anemia as well as some mood swings but for most patients, the correct treatment will relieve pain, protect the joints and maintain mobility.
显然，银屑病关节炎患者享受生活的质量取决于关节粘合症状的严重程度。你需要提防劳累、贫血以及情绪激动，但是对大多数病人来说，正确的治疗将减轻疼痛，保护关节和维持生理机能。
