Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
At bedtime my right middle finger became super itchy at the middle joint. When I woke up in the morning that finger was dark reddish blue between the two joints on the palm side only; and, it looked swollen and felt stiff. Two days later all the symptoms are gone.
Arthritis of the middle finger is happening to you. The disease process usually starts from smaller joints and then progresses.
To halt this disease process you need to take anti-inflammatory medications for a long time. Go to rheumatologists if you want the best treatment to be taken after best examination.
Here we can advise you, but cannot examine you and be very sure.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Archana
