Answers:

It depends, sometimes if you do activities where your fingers are being used a lot or in one position for a long itime like in fishing or rock climbing your fingers can overtime start to get arthritis at a fairly early age. If you do activites that might cause this then it's probably arthritis, if not you should see a different doctor.
