Psoriatic arthritis!: Initial rx may be aspirating and injecting the inflamed joint, after diagnosis is verified, with a corticosteroid, starting and nsaid, and then giving him oral or subcutaneous methotrexate. There are many other things to use, but you can cooks this soup many ways!

Arthritis: Regular duet should be ok. No special food is needed. Medications to treat inflammation are needed ranging from otc Ibuprofen to prescription agents. You must see a doctor
