Stiff fingers in the morning. Why?!
Question: Stiff fingers in the morning!. Why!?
Hi, I'm 19 yr old female, healthy!. I was diagonosed with carpul tunnel syndrome in my left hand about 2 years ago, but it hasn't bothered me much!. When I wake up each morning, my fingers are very stiff and sore!. Today, I woke up, and my middle finger on my left hand wouldn't move!. I had to work with it alot to get full range of motion, and it stayed sore the entire day!. And it would flick back up, like a pop, in the second joint!. The pain doesn't' feel like the carpul tunnel pain, but I'm just curious as to if this is related, I'm seeing the doctor tomorrow, but I'd like some feedback to go in with, thanks!. Let me know if you need any other details, let me know!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Do you have any history in your family of arthritis!. Pain and inflammation are signals of this growing problem!. The arthritis foundation has more information on the problem at this link http://www!.arthritis!.org/arthritis-is!.ph!.!.!. !. I would definitely go to a doctor to get the condition checked out!. By a doctor seeing and feeling your hand, and possibly doing an X-ray, he will probably be able to tell you what the exact problem is!. Definitely get some expert advice, and also ask your doctor for all of the possible solutions to your problems, including all natural alternatives!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
If it's not the carpal tunnel, which it likely is; then unfortunately it could be the beginning of rheumatoid arthritis, which can be juvenile and start under 10 years of age!. It could also be a buildup of toxins in the joint, lactic acid being the primary and most easily identifiable culprit, from the muscles!. Also, consider side affects of any drugs you may be taking!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
