A member asked:
The last three days i've been waking up with swollen painful fingers and the swelling seems to go away within a few hours but the pain comes and goes?

Swollen fingers: Could be arthritis or a connective tissue disorder. Another thought is carpal tunnel. Wearing wrists braces at night should help the latter. If bedtime NSAID helps could be either. May need to see your dr for further evaluation if this continues.
