Could Swollen Knuckle Be Due To Multiple Sclerosis?

I have M.S. and I have started a new med. Aubagio about 7 weeks ago. I have been under a lot of stress lately. Today the back of both of my hands in the knuckle area are swollen between the fingers. Can you tell me if this could be a M.S. attack? Thank You, Corinne

HI
Well come to HCM
This is not because of the M.S. but this could be muscular pain may be due to some nonspecific reason some time may be due to stress condition, arthritis changes may be likely, NASID (Non-Steroid-Anti-inflammatory-drug) can be tried and best option would be "Tab Diclofenac 50 mg once in day, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
