Avatar m tn The next day that area was sore and swollen. It still is swollen today and still hurts when I make a fist. When I make a fist, I can tell that my hand is swollen because it feels fatter then it used to... plus hurts. What do you think I did to my hand? Will it clear up on its own, or should I see a doctor?
Avatar n tn Might be a good idea, just to make sure there isn't any infection. The swelling and soreness is normal.
Avatar m tn I have a sore on my thumb, it is somewhat deep and it is painful. The tissue surrounding the area is swollen. The center almost looks like an ulcer. Does anyone know what might be causing this?
Avatar n tn As anti inflammatory has worn off - back to sore joint and swollen hand and fingers (not ridiculously swollen but tight when clenching fist). Can move joint but is noticeably sore. Is this arthritis or have i just pulled a tendon in this finger? Have not injured it and just woke up with the sore finger. No noticeable redness or anything else. I am 39 and in good health.

Avatar m tn Hey, I´m working in a picking apple farm from the last 2 months, and now I´m feeling my arms really really sore. My hands and finger went swollen and my arms and nerves are really painful. I stay for many hours with my arm up to my head the whole day picking apples. I would like to now if is a muscle problem or nerves or blood circulation and what I should do to stop the pain or not have any other further problem.
Avatar n tn I have exactly this problem. A very fit and healthy 51 year old right hand that only a week ago had a comment about my firm handshake. Now I can't shake hands, the knuckle at the top of my middle finger is sore and swollen making it difficult to both lay my hand flat or make a fist. There was no impact injury that I can think of and xrays showed nothing. I've never had gout and the only other joint issue I have is a bad knee. Any clues?
Avatar m tn i put back in place right away. it is swollen and sore but it does work correctly. this happened 6 days ago. should i see a doctor about this.
Avatar n tn It has been five days now and I feel the same, I wake up in the night because of the sore throat and headache. My question is do you have any advice that would help, or ideas what my be causing this?
432737 tn?1358549432 I'm just over 34 weeks. For the last week or so, I've been waking up in the middle of the night and morning to really bad finger pain that lasts for aw hile! It's hard to bend my fingers and sometimes they make a popping feeling when I bend them. Middle three fingers on each hand are the worst. During the day, they're not "as" sore, but still a little. I can't seem to find anything about this in my baby books. My hands don't look swollen. Anyone else have this??
Avatar m tn In addition now ( 4 weeks after the lancet incident) I am experiencing a sore throat and my lypmnodes above my collarbone seem swollen and also the one in my groin area. Can I lancet transmit HIV? Could they have purposely infected me with HIV and not told me anything about it? Was I at risk of HIV?
Avatar m tn I am a 23 year old female, with reynaud's phenomenon. Usually I suffer from very cold/numb hands, which only swell a little for maybe 10 minutes after they start to heat up. I woke up today with a very swollen index finger. I thought maybe I'd banged it, but now my little finger is swollen, too. They hurt to touch, and my hands are still cold and normal coloured. It's only on one hand - my right. I'm getting worried, now, because this hasn't happened before.
Avatar f tn It is accompanied with a mild sore throat and slightly swollen tonsils. Before any pain began I had about 3 weeks of a mild cough, that is almost nonexistent now. The symptoms are: * Painful and some swelling joints, both sides of the body: neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, some finger, hips, knees, ankles and big toes * Morning pain, sometimes cannot raise one or both arms to brush hair, etc.
Avatar f tn The joints at the base of my fingers are very sore and swollen and so is my wrist. I have been taking anti inflamatories, ice and tried heat with no relief. I do have an appoinment with a hand specialist but it is weeks away as they are hard to get into. Just wondering what could be causing this and what else I can do. What are the usual treatments and is it common to have wrist pain also. The back of my hand were the fingers bend into a fist is pretty swollen at times.
Avatar f tn I have a very annoying callus or growth on my right hand ring finger just next to the nail bed it grows to form a hard and rough chunk of yellowish skin and eventually annoys me so much that I remove it either by biting or using nail scissors! When it's the rough skin it doesn't really cause me pain but when I remove a lot of it it it tends to feel rough but soft and starts to feel swollen and sore. It doesn't matter how many times I cut it away it just keeps growing back!
Avatar f tn Late yesterday it started hurting some in the knuckle where my finger joins my hand, top and bottom. Its sore feeling in that area when I touch it. A vein on the right side of the finger is bulging out some and it seems to be slightly swollen. I can bend it, it just hurts.
Avatar f tn who said hiv doesnt spread through oral sexs and or due to fingering with cuts on the fingeres, even people who sells cut fruits if he or she has hiv and excidently cut his or her finger and the blood was found on the fruits pasked up cold ready to eat those who eat the fruit can be infected also, my friend, yes its one in a thousand
Avatar m tn The same day I took a 20 day post exposure 4th gen combo test I began to get a headache and sore throat. 6 days after the headache and sore throat began, I had a fever of 39.1 degrees celsius for 24 hours. After the fever left, I developed swollen lymph nodes in my neck and armpits and red spots (petechiae) on my soft palate. Today is 7 days since these "symptoms" began. I took and insti rapid test today.
Avatar f tn She then wanted to look over my hands saying Myositis or more correctly Dermamyositis can cause red lesions on the finger joints and knuckles and can actually get into the joint itself and destroy it. If the red bumps on your hand don't go away in a couple days I would see a dermatologist. Even if it isn't myositis or even Lupus related at least the derma will be able to tell you what it is and perhaps give you some med to clear it up.

Avatar n tn Hi there- have had a swollen finger for about four days- no injury. been taking mobic and tylenol arthritis . not much improvement. went to dr. today and he prescribed me prednisione. but my bp was high and that was kind of upsetting. can an arthritic flare, if thats what it is, make your bp jump? thanks.
Avatar m tn i had diarrhea, fever, night sweats, loss of appetite, headache, fatigue, sore throat for more than 3 weeks. I tested using a rapid finger prick test after 3 weeks and came back negative, since i assume i had all ars symptoms i continued to do more test on week 4 elisa, and western blot end of week 4, it all came out negative. after that i waited for 12 weeks and tested using Genie II Hiv 1/2 bio rad, finger prick test.. which came out negative also,Thank GOD.
Avatar n tn you can get it at any grocery store its very inexpenssive and easy to use and some warts depending on size and location will go away with just one treatment
Avatar m tn Thanks again,but whats the cause of my persistent sore throat and swollen nodes?..maybe she has sores in her mouth..and I remember that I only washed my hand with cold water without soap..please help ..thanks again.
Avatar f tn If it just happened, it may be sore or even swollen for a few days. Ice can help relieve the pain and any swelling. If the pain continues past two or three days, seeing your primary might be a good idea.
