Suggest Treatment For Swelling In The Finger Post An Injury
When I jam a finger the healing process now takes 1-2 years and the finger stays swollen for the first year. Now I have Sciatica that gets worse with PT, and I am wondering if Rheumatoid arthritisis to blame for these problems. Mother and Grandmother had crippling arthritis. I am only 56 and very active. Constant pain in hands, back, and down back of leg is becoming a problem.

Hi,
Consult an orthopedician and get evaluated to look for any possible residual injury.
As of now, you can take analgesics like Acetaminophen or Tramadol for pain relief.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
