Suggest Treatment For Stiffness And Pain In The Finger
Had developed stiffness and joint pain in my right hand ring finger.Had difficulty in bending the finger due to stiffness and pain. Due to stiffness the middle joint when straightening the finder seems to be stuck and straightening with some click. The condition is now improved a lot after exercises. Initially a GP said it is Dupuytren s contracture which I doubt because finger is not disfigured and I had pain in two joints.
