Hi all. I'm a 38 year old male. I been diagnosed with reactive arthritis May 2016 after a chest infection started in March 2016. My symptoms were at the time, swollen hands, ankles, elbows, legs and skin rash on my arms, back side, feet, legs and under my feet...rash feelslike I've been scolded with hot water when I had a shower...alcohol consumption contributed to all this flaring up! Also got a very height uric acid level and now treated for goat. I'm not on medication for the arthritis...currently skin rash occur when I'm stressed out, walked or drove long and far distances but its not pain skin rash...looks like red dots and it's not itchy either. As soon as I have a drink this reaction occurs! Any body experienced some as weird like this before or even heard of it?
