Answer 2

Your fingers are usually swollen and very sore.  You have to move them and bend them to ease the pain and help with the swelling.  Some people put their hands under very warm water to help relieve the pain in the joints. There are several things that you can do to help with the pain--the doctor can give you meds, you can take herbs or use the parrafin wax bath for your hands. I have arthritis in my hands and if you need more specific information--let me know.
