Covid and inflammation

So, I have psoaratic arthritis so caused by my immune system.
Week before last it was flaring really bad especially my hands.
On the 19th tested covid +, but this week my hands have been so much better.
I'm wondering if this is unusual ? Maybe my immune system is too busy fighting the covid to affect my hands.

Hello @choppers
I believe there is a link between psoriatic arthritis and the Covid infection: as you say, your immune system was fighting vey hard!
