Early arthritis?: Arthritic joints are typically more painful in wet and cold weather. Morning stiffness is also a common symptom. Ice and anti-inflammatory medications are important treatments for early arthritis symptoms. Exersices which emphasize strenght and joint flexibility are benificial. See a board certified orthopaedic surgeon for evaluation and treatment. May need to rule out rheumatoid arthritis.
