What Do Redness And Swelling On The Ring Finger Knuckle Indicate?
I have redness and swelling on the mid knuckle of my ring finger, at first I thought it was from hitting the heavy bag but now it s been more than a week and it still remains it s not painful or sore but when I bend it, there is stiffness. It is also very sensitive to touch.
Maybe, it is mono-arthritis of the ring finger. There are swelling and redness, you need anti-inflammatory medication to be taken in order to reduce the inflammation.
Take Ibuprofen drug for 3 to 5 days to reduce the inflammation. It is also a good analgesic which can help in reducing the pains.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Archana
