Is The Vein Burst In My Knee Related To Arthritis?

I was diagnosed with reactive arthritis two years ago, I also have chronic gastritis and ectopic heartbeat, along with all the other symptoms that come with this disease. I have constant flares of pain swelling heat etc. I am currently aking 22.5mg methotrexate weekly. Folic acid, sulfasalazine, dihydracodeine and paracetamol. When i woke up today. I appear to have a burst vein in my knee, is this connected to my arthritis and should i be concerned. Thankyou
