(Concern) My finger joints have been hurting lately.

My right little finger joint has been hurting for a few days.

It feels like something is swollen and painful.

I'm thinking it might be because I use my hands a lot since I can't identify the cause, but I'm also scared there might be another reason.

And especially in times like this, you shouldn't use your hands much, but it's actually not that easy.

Will a hot pack help? I'm worried because I haven't gotten better even after going to the orthopedic doctor.

Or should I go to a larger orthopedic hospital?
