How Can Osteoarthritis In The Fingers Be Treated?
Based on the symptom checker, I believe I have peripheral neuropathy affecting my fingers, and arms. I am not diabetic. I have osteoarthiritis in my fingers. I worked on a typewriter, before computers, then computers on an almost daily basis since 1976. What types of medications might cause or irritate this problem?

Hello,
You can take analgesics like tramadol for pain.
If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopedician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.\
