Hi all. I’m 37 and generally healthy. But, several months ago, I began to experience increasing pain in my hands and feet which grew increasingly worse. At first the pain was less severe and I did not pay too much attention to it. But, lately it has gotten really severe. Moreover, my knuckles are enlarged too. What this could be??? Is this something serious that I should see my doc for???
These symptoms certainly look like rheumatoid arthritis. It is not something too serious, even though it is a little early for you to have it. Anyway, you should have this checked by your doc. If so, you’ll probably need to take something like an ibuprofen few times a day. Take care.
