What should i do if i am experiencing sudden onset of pain and stiffness in the joints of my fingers?

Heat: If you are feeling arthritic it can be from previous injury or trauma from sports. Heat is helpful for joint problems along with over the counter Aleve (naproxen) or ibuprofen. If you do not start to resolve see your doctor for a thorough exam.
