sorry if this sounds silly, I don’t want to waste the GPS time but my one finger then hand and rest of thinners swelled up in early Dec 22 and now my left hand fingers have swollen. I don’t have much pain but a bit stiff where they are swollen, should I go to the GP?

Thanks

Does your GP have e-consult? You could ask them what you should do using that facility which my surgery much prefers, you don’t have to wait fir ages on the phone to book an appointment, they contact you.

Maybe should be brought to GPs attention as it may be a significant symptom of something else.Best wishes
