Does Anyone Have Arthritis In Thumbs/Fingers

[723crossroads]

Made it through cleaning!(Flaring) Yay! Thank God I took the questran too. Only had one more attack and then it stopped. Didn't eat anything till I got home and had toast. But I am exhausted and my thumb is still throbbing so bad. Anyone else have arthritis in their thumbs? Fingers too of course. But thumbs the worst.

Thankyou GEC. I get it in the knees and jaw occasionally, but when I do it's never fun is it? I never had these symptoms before crohn's. My Dad has arthritis so bad he is like froze up and swells up. I feel so bad for him.

Yes sadly Grace has had pain in her thumbs. Right now the joint pains are hitting her left elbow and wrist.

I hope you feel better.

I have UC,so I put mine down to wear and tear.The strongest part of me are back and shoulders,the rest of my joints,especially left index finger and both thumbs are very painful.More so,when I'm doing housework and preparing veg,so everyday really.

Yes I can relate to your dad. Mine has gotten so bad in my knee that I ended up having to use a wheelchair!
Hope you feel better soon

I once had an episode of possibly DI migratory arthritis. The joints in my hand in general would get swollen and hurt to the point of being of no use.
