Can you do yoga with synovitis?

Whether individuals with synovitis can practice yoga generally depends on a comprehensive assessment of factors such as the stage of the disease and the severity of the condition. If it is the early stage of the disease, and the patient experiences symptoms such as local swelling and pain, practicing yoga is not recommended, as it may exacerbate symptoms. For mild synovitis, once symptoms have improved with treatment, appropriate yoga practice may be acceptable. However, if the synovitis is severe, with significant joint swelling and limited range of motion, yoga should be avoided.
