Well here is the short version. I have joint pain along my fingers and knuckles. My hands sweat all the time, and my hands swell everyday more than 5 times a day. The swelling lasts about 5-25 minutes.

More info: I was in the 4th grade and went skiing for the first time in New Mexico. My hands began to swell and become useless because my hands were swelling inside my gloves and i was rushed to the emergency room. They thought i had arthritis. Well now im the 9th grade, and im having terrible episodes of swelling/sweating/and joint pains. I have been going to multiple different doctors and having multiple x-rays. Does anyone else have this issue and got treatment of some sort?
Thanks.

this problem of weak bones in her old age?

About a year ago,i started experiencing pain in my right elbow.i have worked out for years,so I thought it may have been a strain,or even “tennis elbow” or something along those lines.I stopped lifting for awhile,but after a month or two,the pain appeared in my left elbow as well.About 6 months ago,the pain spread to my shoulders and chest/collarbone area.Any kind of pushing motion brings excruciating pain in the chest/shoulder area.My elbows don’t hurt to bend,or to lift things, but when extended,or when carrying things they ache bad.about a week ago the back of my right hand went numb,and hasn’t gotten better.I wake up several times a night and whatever side I’m on is asleep or in pain. I’m tired ALL the time,no matter how much rest I get.I have seen my physician,she ran a full blood test and after nothing was found,referred me to a rhuematiod arthritis specialist,whom I will see in a week-but all the research I’ve done doesn’t seem to match the symptoms of arthritis.Any ideas?

Is there a good joint pain relief product that has glucosamine and chondroitin that is NOT derived from shellfish? ( I am allergic to shellfish). I need something that has these ingredients, as well as anything that would ease arthritis pain in addition to rebuilding joint cartilage. I don’t like to take prescription medication, so I would prefer natural joint products.

I just had a cortisone injection today in my hip joint. I am only 25yrs old and have had a serious of hip surgeries. Turns out I could have arthritis already at my age. Has anyone had a cortisone injection in the hip to help with arhritis? Did it work? How long after the injection did it take to get pain relief? And how long did the shot last for? A few weeks? Months? Any help would truly be appreciated!!! Thanks!!!

I have had it since I was 9 (but I have probably had it since I was 7) and it is in every joint except my hips. I have pain everyday and have lost a lot of motion in my joints that are effected especially my ankles. So what do you think my chances are of having to get a joint replacement due to RA?
