Arthritis or Inflammation of the Joints
Q I am a 57-year-old woman who suffers from finger joint pain. I noticed a year ago that when I wake up, all my fingers feel painful.
Usually, the pain goes off after I do some finger exercises. Now, it is more intense and lasts till noon. What is the cause?
A It sounds like you may be dealing with a condition known as arthritis or inflammation of the joints.
This can cause your finger joints to become painful, stiff and swollen.

I also teach my patients an exercise to increase flexibility in the finger joints, protect them and ease the discomfort of morning stiffness.
It is done simply by opening the hands, extending all fingers and spacing them apart, then closing them to form a fist. Do this at least 10times with each hand.
