finger joint popping

There is little to no numbness. The ring finger is the same as well. But my middle finger, index finger and thumb are definitely numb and slightly swollen. My index finger, though, is the only finger experiencing some pain along with the numbness and swelling. Things to note: I did not bang my elbow on anything.

Do you experience locking, snapping, popping or catching sensation in the finger while making a fist? Warm and cold compress, rest and pain relievers may help, but it is best that you see your physician right away for assessment. Hope this helps.

My right hand middle finger joint (the one between the first and second phalanges seens to dislocate or move out of place when I press it with my thumb. It seens to pop although I can´t hear any sound, unless I´m holding it very close to my ears. It occurs when I press the left side of the joint ( the one closest to my index finger) using my thumb. I don´t know if it is the bone or some kind of ligament or tendon that is actually moving, but I can fell something moves out of place.

Bones of a fixated joint are temporarily stuck together due to suction force because of a vacuum created between the joints. When this vacuum is broken, we hear a popping sound. This happens when a joint is more mobile than normal, dislocating the fluid between the joint and creating a vacuum. This has a tendency to recur, as is happening in your case. A number of times this happens due to some genetic problem like hypermobility joint syndrome.

have u been checked for joint hypermobility or Ehlers-Danlos...either of those which r related to chiari would explain popping and joint pain.

just recenly my bones start popping in my arm/sholder joint and the left sholder is sore, have been for over 3 months what could this be

Hi, I'm 25 and for a long time now, a few of my joints pop and crack often when moving, notably the shoulders, knees, wrists and ankles. These cracks don't hurt but are very annoying. I've started taking Cod Liver Oil supplements as I was told they help joint problems. Will this help? The other joint crack is in my thumbs. Most notable my right thumb. I've been playing guitar for 12 years and I have until now put it down to some sort of RSI.

specifically, the two finger joints of the pinky, the top joint of the ring finger, the central joint of the middle finger and sometimes the knuckle and central joint of the index finger. My thumb's central joint can be popped but causes no pain or tightness. Pressing my hand flat on a surface and forcing it to remain there causes tightness at the wrist and I can feel what can only be described as a 'spring effect' at the knuckles when I release.

I have had a problem with my left wrist feeling like it is popping. It makes a loud distinct pop when I move my wrist from side to side. Additionally, I have a dull pain that seems to come and go at random. And occasionally I like my hand is weak. I have had this problem for at least three years, and lately it seems to be getting worse. The only thing that I think could have caused this problem is a four wheeling incident that happened six years ago.

Hey I recently was dx with having EDS the hypermobility type... I've had random joint pains since I was a young kid... but does EDS also cause popping/cracking of joints. Every single one of my joints cracks... sometimes I force it cause I feel like a need to (is that bad?) and sometimes it just happens while walking, getting up, sitting down, etc. Toes, ankles, knees, hips, back, shoulders, elbows, neck, fingers... all of em - drives my husband nuts!

Well I agree with your mom. She's right, these cracking or popping sounds are a normal response to what you are doing to your joints. We all can make those sounds in our joints - some more or less than others. However if you tell me you have "shaking hands" or tremors this is most likely not related to the popping of your joints. Tremors need to be investigated. Is this a medical or physiological condition?

Hello. I am a 14 year old male. And my joints have recently been popping excessively. I have researched many diseases and their symptoms. And my condition doesn't seem to fit of their descriptions. Popping occurs in the entire hand, wrist, foot, and ankle. There is no pain but more of a numbness. My family suggests it is all just " growing pains". But I just don't know. When there's cracking in my fingers I often feel stretched with a light "ache".

I was recently diagnosed with Fobro, and from what I have found online and through my team of doctors is that... its not the same for everyone. I have tons of shouder pain and they say its caused by the Fibro. I also constanlt snap and pop whenever I move. They say that could be arthritus as well. of course I'm not a doctor, but try heating pads for your shoulder or other problem areas. The heat may intensify the pain at first, but eventually the muscles and joints tend to relax a little.

basically what this means is the joint where the upper and lower jaw meet is called in short the tmj. it can make a popping or clicking or cause pain. it sometimes can be helped by wearing a device that helps with the nightime grinding or clenching. chewing gum and hard foods will make it worse. your dentist needs to evaluate by an exam and probably a panoramic xray to look at the joint themselves. sometimes a poor bite is the cause which braces can help.

hello sir, I am 27 male not married, my left knee is popping too when i bend the leg and left elbow also popping when i bend the hand, all body bones are popping to much,i used calcium tablets for 3 months but there is no improvement, please advise me what should be done to stop this sound...

The most common cause of popping joints is joint friction. when two pieces of bone in a joint, such as a ball and socket, rub against one another as you move. Sometimes it is also cartilage rubbing on bone. According to yoga instructor Paul Grilley, writing for Yoga Journal, joint friction is usually no cause for concern. You might not want to go out of your way to do it, but in the normal course of life it is harmless.

I have felt the pelvic/vaginal pain for a while now and figured it was normal, but the popping has just recently started!

With that particular injury, the popping sound is literally the torn component getting expelled from the joint when you straighten your leg. I have this particular problem myself due to a re-injury to a surgical repair. Only an orthopedist can diagnose your particular problem, but that's what it sounds like to me.

The association of pain and swelling that has occurred off late could be indicative of ligamental tears, joint dislocation/ instability, ligamental tears, fractures etc., due to repeated trauma. It would be best to get this evaluated by an orthopedician for an evaluation and appropriate management. Hope this helps. Take care!

One more question would my lymph nodes swell almost 2 years later without any other symptoms but fatigue and joint pain with cracking and popping joints ? I read that if you get hiv symptoms . They come all at once .

I constantly move my big toe, kind of popping my joint, I do it when I try to sleep, or when I'm doing anything. I have a history of hard drug use and have been clean for a year. Can you tell me what ant why?

I have been looking up the elbow anatomy and some ulnar-nerve entrapment info. I think that the ulnar nerve is being affected because I have had some faint numbness in the forearm and tingly pinky finger, but I'm not sure how to fix the elbow. It's as if it's a bit mis-aligned, so when my elbow is bent and then I twist the forearm, I get this loud snapping sound, like a tendon is popping over a joint/bone or something.

ve been having minor pain in the smallest joint on my fourth finger on my right hand. Because I work seven days a week during the school year, I never saw the doctor. But it started getting worse. It hurts, if my fist is closed, to bump the knuckle from above. It also hurts to stretch my fingers out (laying flat is okay, but if I try to stretch them at all, it hurts).

All of a sudden the piece of skin in between my thumb and finger has become stiff. I don't think it would be trigger finger but i might be wrong. It won't go either. What can I do? It's hard to stretch my thumb away from the hand and spread my fingers without it hurting.

One very interesting thing recently has been hearing clicks/pops from my tummy. It sounds like a joint popping, except that there is absolutely no feeling of anything "popping", at least that I can feel. The sound definitely comes from my tummy, and I've definitely never "heard" my other babies making noise before they were born!
