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.
ICD-10 uses the term pyogenic arthritis. Pyogenic also refers to the production of pus. Reactive arthritis refers to arthritis caused by an immune consequence of an infection, but not directly attributable to the infection itself. Septic arthritis is usually caused by bacteria, but may be caused by viral, mycobacterial, and fungal pathogens as well. A broader term is infectious arthritis, which describes arthritis caused by any infectious organism.
