Arthritis after covid

[Bati]

Has anyone been diagnosed with arthritis after having covid.
My Ds (24) had covid Christmas time and since then has been in a lot of pain.
It started in his chest but has now spread to his back, hands, knees and feet. The pain has intensified also and he can no longer work as he is in so much pain. Pain killers are not working.

He had a blood test on Monday to see if he has arthritus, we should get results Friday.
Anybody else been diagnosed with arthritus due to covid, if so what treatment did you have or having and did you recover x

I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis after getting the flu when I was 19
It wasn't even that bad a bout of flu but the RA was fairly aggressive at the beginning which helped with diagnosis.
They suggest that the virus triggered something in my immune system.
I'm now 42, treatments have come a long way and I'm on Biologics and DMARDs.
It can take a while to find treatment that works and it may need to adjusted over time.
