What Causes Stiffness In The Fingers And Knuckles Upon Waking Up?
wondering- very suddenly, a couple of weeks ago I ve been waking up each morning with very stiff and sore fingers and knuckles. I had a 24 bug about the same time and I had a very active weekend using my hands extensively just before the symptoms started in pruning and cutting down trees and shrubs all weekend. What could be causing this?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, the symptoms of pain could be due to excessive working and it can be managed with Tab Ibuprofen 200 mg three times in day, if the symptom persist then it needs to be ruled out for arthritis hope this information helps.
