What does narrowing of the first mcp joint mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Arthritis: Narrowing of the first mcp joint is usually due to some form of arthritis to the area. This may have several causes, as i would visit with my hand specialist or orthopedist before further narrowing or destruction occurs.
