Can I still run with psoriatic arthritis?

Can people run or jog as like before who suffers from psoriatic arthritis?

  1. Hi , it really is individual. We have some PsA contributors who are able to run and be very active, but there are certainly many who can't push that far. PsA makes us more susceptible to tendon and ligament inflammation, so even if jogging seems okay on your joints, definitely be vigilant about plantar fasciitis and achilles tendonitis. More on that here:

    Are you an avid runner? Warm wishes!
