Dear Sir, in psoriatic arthritis, exacerbation and remission will happen, but if you take drugs then remission will come fast. see this is auto immune disease, with drugs we can prevent progression and with alternative therapies like physical therapy, Ayurveda you can prevent deformity going to happen. go for physical therapy treatment and take wax bath, ultrasound and active exercise with grade 1 mobilization if needed. do regular pranayama which helps in making good quality of life. I hope you satisfied with this answers.
