Today is World Psoriasis Day, a time to raise awareness and show support for those affected by this chronic autoimmune condition. At Arthritis and Rheumatology of Georgia, we recognize how complex psoriasis can be—not just physically, but emotionally. While there's no cure, there are steps you can take to help manage symptoms:

✔️ Keep your skin moisturized
✔️ Reduce stress, which can trigger flares
✔️ Avoid harsh skin products and known triggers
✔️ Follow your treatment plan closely

If you are struggling with psoriatic symptoms or joint pain, we are here to help.

You can’t always see chronic illness—but for our patients, the challenges are very real. Invisible disabilities like autoimmune arthritis, vasculitis, and chronic fatigue affect every part of life, even when symptoms are not outwardly visible.

At Arthritis and Rheumatology of Georgia, we’re proud to advocate for greater understanding, more empathy, and better outcomes for those living with invisible conditions.

Let’s listen. Let’s believe. Let’s support. 💙

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month—a time to honor survivors, support those in treatment, and advocate for early detection. At Arthritis and Rheumatology of Georgia, we recognize the importance of whole-body health, especially for individuals navigating complex autoimmune conditions alongside cancer treatment. Many rheumatologic medications can interact with cancer therapies, and maintaining a close partnership between specialties is critical for patient care.

We’re committed to walking beside our patients through every stage of their health journey. This month, and every month, we encourage our community to prioritize wellness, schedule routine screenings, and take proactive steps for their health. Together, we stand strong in the fight against breast cancer. 💗

Today, on World Mental Health Day, we stand together in recognizing the importance of mental wellbeing — especially for those navigating the daily challenges of chronic illness. Living with a rheumatic condition means facing physical pain, uncertainty, and invisible burdens that often impact mental health. At Arthritis and Rheumatology of Georgia, we believe in treating the whole person — mind and body — and we encourage open conversations, compassion, and access to support. Mental health matters every day, and together, we can help break the stigma.

As Rheumatic Disease Awareness Month comes to a close, remember: you don’t have to navigate exercise and movement on your own.

Get personalized support by working with your rheumatologist, physical therapist (PT), or occupational therapist (OT) to develop a safe, tailored plan that fits your lifestyle. Ask about options like aquatic therapy or adaptive exercises designed to reduce strain and build confidence.

💪 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐬: Programs like SilverSneakers, YMCA classes, and local wellness centers often offer safe, joint-friendly activities.

Every patient’s journey is unique — the right plan can help reduce pain, improve mobility, and support long-term health. Awareness Month may be ending, but your journey toward better movement continues 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮 𝙙𝙖𝙮.

💬 Have you ever worked with a PT, OT, or joined a class that helped you feel stronger? Share your experience in the comments!
