Fever, myalgia, erythema noclosum, erythema multyforme, vasculitis and glomerulonephritis can be observed besides oligoarthritis, which is the chief complaint, in the clinical course. However entesopathy is not a usual finding. A twenty-eight years old man with a history of a streptococcal tonsillitis at the previous week admitted to our clinic with the complaints of left knee, ankle, heel pain and left knee swelling that lasted for 5 days and was diagnosed as PSRA. The medical treatment including procaine penicillin for 10 days (1.600.000 IU per day) and acetylsalicylate (5 gr per day) was administered. We aimed to present this case, who was totally cured after this therapy regime, because of the associated calcaneal enthesopathy during the course of PSRA.trinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessEnthesopathy; Poststreptococcal Reactive ArthritisAcetylsalicylic Acid; Procaine Penicillin; Adult; Arthralgia; Arthritis; Article; Bone Pain; Calcaneus; Case Report; Clinical Feature; Disease Course; Enthesopathy; Erythema Multiforme; Erythema Nodosum; Fever; Glomerulonephritis; Human; Infection Complication; Inflammation; Male; Myalgia; Poststreptococcal Reactive Arthritis; Reactive Arthritis; Streptococcus Infection; Tonsillitis; VasculitisArticle51137392-s2.0-18144413505N/A
