See below: While you could have osteoarthritis, you may have an inflammatory arthritis such as rheumatoid. The best place to start is to see your primary for preliminary testing, but you may also need to see a rheumatologist.

Finger stiffness: Yes, osteoarthritis would be a good bet with that description. And especially in a 51 year old female.
