Pain in hand joints, they pop a lot, and hurt worse when typing, could this be ra or oa? the nsaid i'm on is not curing the pain. thanks! :)

Could be but: Based on your age OA is not as likely but still possible. This is something that needs a physical exam. there are both neurologic and rheumatologic causes of this type of pain including RA, PA, Carpal tunnel syndrome etc. You need to see your primary care MD
