Hi.
Female with age 40 to 50, swollen painfull small joints of hand and feet more than 6 week history,stiff at morning.. likely the possibility of rheumatoi arthritis.
Following tests are needed
R.A Factor
CRP,ESR
Anti CCP antibodies if R.A Factor is -ve
Methotrexate,steroids and NSAIDs are helpfull.
It is better to consult rheumatogist as they are trained in this field.
Wish you good health.
