Sounds like a reaction to the streptococcus virus. I am sure that with treatment, but I'm not a doctor. A good website www.webmd.com
Streptococcus is a type of bacteria. Yes, it's the bacteria that causes sore throat. "
I do not have much information on PSRA, I found a description that can help you:
United Kingdom, rheumatic diseases
Rheumatoid arthritis and acute post-streptococcal reactive

PSRA seems that a variant could be of rheumatic fever, but is untested.
"Post" means for "."
Steptococcal is a kind of very nasty bug that a person can dig through a cut or infection in the mucous membranes of humans.
Reactive means that there is something that has driven by Streptococcus.
And arthritis of course, is an inflammation of the joints between the bones of a man.
Almost everyone at some point in their lives or otherwise receives a streptococcal infection, and almost all winds up to fight the infection. But even with identical twins, no one can predict how the immune system of a person after killing germs and allows you to move with life.
Some people, after they stop producing the errors of their mucosal immune system to beat the production of various mucous glands of any kind for some time, with the white blood cells a better chance to make their way through the epithelium and the attack small parasites.
So sometimes the patient is unable to produce saliva for strep orARS PHLEM or for several days or more, and the need for eye drops and use a glass or two of something with each bite during meals.
Many of these people after that they kind of mucus that lubricates the cartilage in the joints is the joint fluid produced by fellowships to produce.
If you do not end with other symptoms of streptococcal infection (fever, cough, etc.), but still, what we do normally, and even if she has a very active life, without realizing it could be the end result of severe damage The cartilage in the joints, the absence of joint fluid, without knowing that they've never had a sore throat.
In other words, is a form of arthritis that occurs on the sole basis of the immune system response to streptococcal infection, if the patient is bedridden or completely enough so that the joints are not undermined by lack of lubrication, of course, affected.
