Severe pain on finger joint?


my middle finger has been swollen on the joint part for about three weeks,ive had no accident or anything,now last night i woke up with the most severe pain in the finger and its swollen i cant move it ive been taking pain killers any idea what this could be?i definatly have had no injury

Yes that's how my rheumatoid arthritis started too, with both middle fingers swelling and sore. You need to be referred to a bone and joint specialist as soon as possible as they can stop this ugly disease from spreading. So the sooner you get seen to the better as its only going to keep on spreading. Cheers and good luck.

Bird flipping strain,
Rheumatism
Arthritis
sports (golf injury etc)

you need a digital revolution

you're either having a reaction to something, or you have artheritus (i cant spell!) go to the doctors and sort it out, drink honey and lavender tea, its helps alot with the ache

If you haven't injured it,you had better see your doctor,rheumatoid arthritis can start in fingers or feet first and needs prompt treatment ,hope it's not that though.

this is a case of infectious arthritis
you might wanna see a doctor
they might keep you in the hospital
surgery to drain fluid or foreign matieral introduced by an injury.
theyll give you physical therapy after recovery to regain full use of the joint
you should call your doctor immediatley.

It could still be a form of arthritis (the most common kind comes from regular use of the joints) as one possibility but the only way to know for sure what is going on is to have this evaluated by your dr to see what they think is going on.
