If you develop CPPD, you may have episodes that come on suddenly and last for days or weeks. CPPD is sometimes referred to as pseudogout because symptoms can sometimes be similar to gout. Also, joint inflammation can result in symptoms associated withosteoarthritisorrheumatoid arthritisincluding:2...
Pseudogout occurs when microscopic calcium pyrophosphate crystals accumulate in a joint and trigger an immune system response. Doctors may refer to pseudogout as calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) or acute calcium pyrophosphate crystal arthritis (acute CPP crystal arthritis). SeeWhat Is Calcium Pyrop...
