Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have had a tremor in my left hand for 6 or 7 yrs. It s doesn t get any worse. I have been a massage therapist for 12 yrs.. Now I have inflammation in the knuckle of my first finger. Appeared overnight with no injury. My father had RA. I am 58 yrs. 144 lbs. 5 3 . Workout regularly.
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms can be related to many medical conditions. It seem to be related to essential tremor. Thyroid issues should be excluded through examination of thyroid hormone levels. If the thyroid issues are excluded, you should consult a neurologist for further evaluation.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi General &Family Physician
