What Causes Pain In Joints, Fingers And Weakness In Right Hand?
I have been experiencing pain in the joints at the base of my fingers, sometime I am unable to make a fist as well as weakness in my right hand. Whenever I pick up anything thin (plastic grocery bag handles) the fingers involved lock to where I have to remove the item and pop the fingers open in both hands. I am left handed

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it may be arthritis condition although it need to be confirmed but prior to this pain condition can be managed with NSAID (Nonsteroid Anti-inflammatory Drug) and best would be Tab Diclofenac 50 mg once in day, it is advisable to get done the x-ray of hand hope this information helps.
