Is the problem rheumatoid arthritis or psoriatic arthritis or osteoarthritis

I cannot emphasize how important diagnosis is and how it leads to better treatment
Yes, it is usually treated to provide significant improvement.
Most of the 105 types of arthritis can be successfully treated to the point where there is no pain or disability.
