Joint disease that occurs up to a month following an infection in some other part of the body.
Arthropathy may also include joint conditions caused by physical trauma to joints, but is traditionally used to describe the following conditions: 1  Reactive arthropathy (M02-M03) is caused by an infection, but not a direct infection of the synovial space.  1 A disorder characterized by an infectious process involving a joint. 2  A disorder of joint(s) caused by the presence of an infectious agent in the joint(s). 3  An infectious process affecting a joint. 4  Causative agents include bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. 1 A disorder of joint(s) caused by the presence of an infectious agent in the joint(s). 2  An infectious process affecting a joint. 3 Introduction.

The condition is most commonly caused by staphylococcal or streptococcal bacteria Arthropathy is a blanket term that is used to refer to diseases of the joints. There are a number of different forms with a variety of causes that require different approaches to treatment. These conditions can be quite painful, and they usually require treatment to inhibit further degeneration of the joint. Arthritis is a form of arthropathy, a disease affecting the joints. Crystal arthropathy is associated with gout. Facet arthropathy is caused by the facet joints of the back degenerating, and it results in back pain. People with facet arthropathy may have difficulty bending backward at the waist. Post-infectious reactive arthropathy: Joint disease that occurs up to a month following an infection in some other part of the body. More detailed information about the symptoms, causes, and treatments of Post-infectious reactive arthropathy is available below.  Arthropathy is manifested in the form of many bone and joint diseases. Some of them are: 1  Enteropathic Arthropathy: Enteropathic Arthropathy include a group of rheumatogic health conditions such as arthritis caused due to bacteria, parasatic infections and spondyloarthropathies. Joint diseases are also known as Arthropathy diseases generically. These diseases can be restricted to only one joint as in arthritis or can affect several joints as in Rheumatoid arthritis and Osteoarthritis. Rotator cuff tear arthropathy (or shoulder arthritis with a large rotator cuff tear) is a severe and complex form of shoulder arthritis in which the shoulder has lost not only the cartilage that normally covers its joint surface but also the tendons of the rotator cuff tear which help position and power the joint. Rotator cuff tear arthropathy (or shoulder arthritis with a large rotator cuff tear) is not a lethal condition. Pain. Rotator cuff tear arthropathy (or shoulder arthritis with a large rotator cuff tear) frequently causes pain and limited use of the arm. Neuropathic arthropathy is one of the joint diseases associated with changes in bones and joints due to loss of sensation associated with other health conditions like trauma, infection, diabetes, spina bifida, pernicious anemia, and amyloidois. Joint diseases are also known as Arthropathy diseases generically. These diseases can be restricted to only one joint as in arthritis or can affect several joints as in Rheumatoid arthritis and Osteoarthritis. Overview. Arthropathy is a collective term for any disease of the joints. The disease may be localized to one joint, as with post-traumatic arthritis, or may affect multiple joints, as with osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis.
