I've recently noticed a small pebble size growth on the outside joint of my little finger, little toe, and side of my foot where my toes are attached. At first, I can move them and then they solidify. I have both osteoarthritis and psoriatic arthritis...is this a normal development? Thank you
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
In people with osteoarthritis, this type of eruptions are normal. Chalky collection around small joints of the body is nothing to be worried about. Just keep an eye and if size increases then you should consult a surgeon.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
