painful middle finger joint left hand

[joystir59]

Has anyone had these symptoms- the first joint on my middle finger, left hand is swollen wont bend fully and painful with a tingling burning kind of pain.

Sounds like arthritis to me.

I had the same and have been told it's osteoarthritis. Have been told there's not a lot. They can do other than fish oil

Worth getting it checked out though, in case it's a rheumatoid issue which will need treatment

I had this on one of my fingers and it was a trapped ulner nerve referring from my elbow. Couldn’t bend it for a week but it fixed itself up luckily.
