What Could Be The Reason Of Sore And Bent Finger ?

my ring finger, first joint on the tip is bent like double jointed and i cant straighten it out without using my other hand. It s sore and getting more sore. this happened over night. I thought it might be athritis but it happened so quickly, i went to bed fine and woke up with a bent, sore finger. I m 51 years old and I have lower back trouble and sore ankles,...I know that s just age but I can t figure out the finger. Last trip to the doctor cost me about $1000.00 and X rays they won t even show me because of some HIPAA rule...I know that s bull....anyway....what s up with my finger? :/
