When dealing with spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis might affect facet joints. On the other hand we are dealing with a "might" here so it is not necessary for this to happen. In fact, only few cases that show individuals suffering from facet joint problems will also suffer from psoriatic arthritis. The link between the two is very narrow and does bring in a need to consult specialists when dealing with one or both of them. The good news is that it is all treatable to some extent and life is not really in any danger if proper measures are taken.
