Could This Be Arthritis In My Hands
Ask Rusty Arthritis Questions answered by Rusty Ford Editor of Arthritis-Symptom.com Could this be arthritis in my hands Hi Rusty. A few days ago, I slightly injured a finger on my hand. Now my hand is swelling with severe joint pain in the fingers. At first I thought this was a possible sprain in that region, but now my other hand is showing the same swelling of the fingers and pain of the joints. Should I go check this out right away?

But if it is arthritis or one of the other conditions that can cause this type of swelling in the fingers the earlier the diagnosis the better. I wish you good health.
