Suggest Remedies For Swelling In Hands Due To Arthritis
I have recently developed arthritis in my 4th finger of my right hand - it hurts some days, others not; but the knuckle has really enlarged quickly. Is there anything I can do to stop it progressing to my entire hand. Some one mentioned cortisone shots???Sorry I didn t know there was a charge - I do not use my credit card for anything on line - was hacked into big time 3 times in 2015 - therefore I won t use it Txs anyway; sorry to take up UR time. The ad should say up front there is a fee!

Suggest Remedies For Swelling In Hands Due To Arthritis
Hello, Your symptoms seem to be related to rheumatoid arthritis. I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to relieve the inflammation. I also suggest using cold compresses for local application. If the pain continues, I suggest seeing a rheumatologist. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
