About hand and finger pain
Pain in the hands and fingers can come from osteoarthritis (often with bony knobs at the finger joints), rheumatoid arthritis (swollen, stiff joints on both sides, worse in the morning), carpal tunnel syndrome (tingling and numbness in the thumb, index and middle fingers, worse at night), trigger finger, tendon inflammation, gout, injury, Raynaud’s phenomenon and nerve compression in the neck. Repetitive tasks such as typing or phone use, thyroid disease, diabetes and vitamin B12 deficiency contribute. Resting and splinting, heat or cold packs, hand exercises and regular breaks from repetitive work help. See a doctor if there is sudden numbness or weakness, a hot swollen joint with fever, pain after injury, or pain with chest discomfort.
