Most people with reactive arthritis recover fully from the first flare of symptoms and can return to regular activities two to six months later. Some people will have long-term, mild arthritis. A few patients will have long-term, severe arthritis that is difficult to control with treatment and may cause joint damage.
The goal of treatment is to treat infections and manage symptoms. Since reactive arthritis may affect different parts of the body, more than one doctor may be involved in the patient's care. A rheumatologist (a doctor with specialized training in arthritis treatment) will likely be the primary doctor.
