Pain In The Fingers, Overlapping Each Other. What Is Wrong?
Hi my name is Wyndom and im 23 with some hand issues. My right hand always hurts and the fingures are starting to overlap each other. My pinky and ring fingure are bending to the right and the index is staring to go to left, palm facing up. At work i notice a amountof pain that concerns me in almost all knuckles and my wrist... Im only 23 why am i having these issues

Hi Wyndom. Unfortunately it looks as though you've developed rheumatoid arthritis and you need to see a doctor for blood work and x-rays of the hand. This can be treated with antiinflammatories, Methotrexate, and, if need be immune modulators like Humira
