Is arthritis related to charcot marie tooth disease in any way?

Maybe: Cmt does not directly cause joint swelling or inflammation. It can lead to early osteoarthritis due to nerve damage and/or change in the arch of the foot. It can also lead to a charcot joint due to the loss of sensation in foot or hand.

No: Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease are muscle weakness and decreased muscle size, considered a hereditary, neurological disorder. See a neurologist for evaluation, imaging and management.
