My middle finger is swollen and i have not injured it. i took an x-ray and nothing was found. what could it be? it has been over a month

It could be gout: it could be psoriatic arthritis…these are just 2 possibilities. I would see either an Orthopedist who specializes in hands or a rheumatologist.
