my hands kept getting swollen and throbbing today. wasn't doing anything really. just standing and listening at a tour. Weather wasn't rainy but it's gonna be rainy. is this a fibro symptom??? seems like I don't get answers from docs so maybe somebody else can let me know if they experience it too
Swelling and bumps could be one of the forms of arthritis. Maybe look into them and bring up testing to a doctor. Ice and rest usually help my personal arthritis nodules. Also pt excercises for my hands.
there can be other types of arthritis! Some pcps will test u for ra and pretend like its the only one xD but regardless of what it is the ice and rest shouod rlly help! And nsaids honestly if u can take them.
I get inflammation like that from my allergies or from eating something I shouldn't (Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). I don't have arthritis, just some really bad inflammation.
