I use compression gloves when my hands flare up. Mine have a rubber texture over the palms to help with grip

There’s a product call Medic Moist which helps my hands and wrists. You can get it on line. It’s a cream.

I take naproxen (Aleve) and am currently on Xeljanz which has nearly eliminated my pain, but doesn’t help inflammation.

Ibprofen 800mgs help. I also take enbral and it helps. If it’s bothering you go see a doctor! I hope you get relief! ❤️

I take Taltz and Methotrexate. Ibuprofen was my main pain med until going on the Methotrexate. Now all I can take is Tylenol or the Tramadol my rheumatologist wants me to take twice a day. The Tramadol gives me too many side effects and no noticeable relief. I hope more people answer your question, I would love to see more answers. Praying for you friend.

I take Mobic, Tylenol arthritis and I am on a biologic called Stelara. I have so many issues I am not sure what is working and what isn’t. Good luck on your search
