A member asked:
I think i have capsulitis of the carpal joint of the little finger. it is most painful when i awake in am. what do you recommend to treat this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See details: Carpal joints are located in the wrist and not the finger. Your description is too vague to determine the cause but it is likely to be tendinitis or arthritis. Have it evaluated by an orthopedist.
