I have arthritis in 3 fingers and today the pain is really bad in one of them even when I'm not doing anything and if I knock it slightly I suffer for ages until it stops throbbing. It must be hell to have it in all your joints.
My GP gave me some strong ibuprofen that I've been taking today but they also knock me out and make me feel groggy. What helps to ease arthritis pain? Should I try warmth (hands are cold all the time too) or ask for different pain killers? Has any one found anything that helps?
