Dactylitis, Anyone With This Condition, Does It Ever Resolve On Its Own?

A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Fort Walton Beach, FL

This is a Psoriatic arthritis symptom. I have Psoriatic Spondylitis, a less common form of Psoriatic arthritis. I'm just this past week having my first experience with dactylitis in my primary thumb, feels like it has been smashed with a hammer and is twice the size it normally is. Topical voltaren gel and copper fit glove has helped some, but wondering if it ever goes away.
