Reactive Arthritis

About Reactive Arthritis

Reactive arthritis is a type of inflammatory arthritis that can occur after an infection in another part of the body, typically the intestines, genitals, or urinary tract. It usually affects the knees, ankles, and feet, but it can also affect other joints, such as the spine, elbows, and wrists.

Symptoms of reactive arthritis

  • Joint pain and swelling, especially in the knees, ankles, and feet
  • Redness, warmth, and stiffness in the affected joints
  • Fatigue
  • Eye problems, such as conjunctivitis (pink eye) or uveitis (inflammation of the inside of the eye)
  • Urinary problems, such as pain or burning when urinating
  • Mouth ulcers

Causes of reactive arthritis

The exact cause of reactive arthritis is unknown, but it is thought to be an autoimmune reaction. This means that the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissues.

Reactive arthritis is most often triggered by a bacterial infection, such as:

  • Chlamydia
  • Salmonella
  • Shigella
  • Yersinia
  • Campylobacter

It can also be triggered by some viral infections, such as:

  • Chlamydia
  • Reovirus
  • Parvovirus B19
