Fingets from bending and sweeling of the

Joints of yhe fingers

Any advise or experiences welcome

Have you spoken to your rheumy? If not I’d give them a call and tell them what’s happening, if you don’t tell them they will just assume you’re ok. Maybe your meds need reviewing if you’re flaring and it’s not going away.

It sounds as if you are in need of urgent treatment. Go to your GP or Rheumatology, but make it urgent. All the best.

You should always discuss any problems with your rheumy nurse. This needs nipping in the bud. Good luck.

Your Rheumy should be able to refer you to the Physio Dept and they can give you advice, exercises and if appropriate splints etc, but you need to be assessed professionally as soon as you can. If you get the right hand supports and treatment it can slow down the progression of the bending👍 I hope you get help and comfort soon

Please contact your Rheumy straight away as it seems your RA is not sufficiently well controlled by your meds and they may need tweaking.

I don’t think you should wait two months to get this sorted as your meds don’t seem to be working well. Any delay may result in irreversible damage. Please contact your Rheumy.
