How to Prevent Psoriatic Arthritis Enthesitis

In many cases, preventing enthesitis may be not possible. However, you can make some lifestyle changes to minimize the damaging effects on the body. Try to maintain or reach a healthy weight, which can reduce stress on the affected joints and inflamed entheses. Also, limit salt consumption in the diet to reduce swelling. Keep in mind that early diagnosis and treatment would help prevent joint damage, improve symptoms, and reduce disease activity. Thus, visit your healthcare provider as soon as you notice one of the above-mentioned symptoms to prevent serious complications and improve the quality of life. [8]
