How Many Of You Have Pain Bilaterally From PsA? I.E. Both Wrists....

A MyPsoriasisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Coos Bay, OR

I'm trying to decide if my Lupus is causing it or if my PsA is bilateral. I'm having pain in both wrists, elbows, hands, and ankles. The only unilateral areas are my si joint and hip.

When I was diagnosed in 2010 and for many years after, my joint pain was bilateral. One side might be slightly more painful but if my right knee, shoulder etc hurt then so did my left. I find that even now my pain tends to be bilateral but now notice that one side is significantly more painful, swollen and stiff than the other. Even my psoriasis is in the same areas of the right and left arm and leg.
