Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to rheumatoid arthritis. I suggest using anti-inflammatory medication such as Naproxen. I also recommend using cold compresses for local relief.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
