What Causes Swollen And Painful Fingers In Both Hands?
My fingers on my left hand are swollen, when I use my fingers or touch them by the top knuckle they hurt. I don t recall hurting my hand. I was having trouble with fingers on both of my hands every once in a while but I just thought it was because I wokr in a nursing home and tie shoes, button shirts and etc. But this with all of my fingers at one time on my left hand came all of a sudden.
