Hi I’m currently having tests to see if I have rheumatoid arthritis, I’m suffering with my foot , it started at the joint at the side of my big toe and is now at the base of my toes we’re they join the foot, walk in centre just told me to rest it but I work in retail and I’m always in my feet . Anyone had a similar problem? Nurse said either arthritis or hairline fracture but I’ve not had a foot injury Thanks in advance

I have RA, and it began in my wrists, hands and ankles. Sorry if I'm being cheeky (and nosy) but your ankle looks rather swollen. I hope you get some answers soon, and if it is RA, try to get a referral to a Rheumatology Consultant as your GP won't be able to prescribe the correct drugs to treat it with. Best Wishes. XX
