My wrists and fingers have been so achy for the past week. the tiniest amount of wrong movement and it hurts like hell, why??
I did get my friends wrist brace to borrow and it's amazing!! Though it is only for my left wrist. I need to tell my doctor so I can get some wrist braces (and all the other help I need)

What are the Types and Treatments for Arthritis?

Understanding Arthritis
The Best Knee Specialists in Bangalore at Suguna Hospital describe Arthritis as a condition that causes swelling and tenderness in one or multiple joints throughout the body. As your age or with certain health issues like high blood sugar levels, this condition may worsen.
Different Types of Arthritis
Arthritis isn’t restricted to a particular age but is commonly noticeable in later stages.
Some of the common types are:
Osteoarthritis – Affecting joints in your Hands, Knees and Spine.
Psoriatic Arthritis – Caused due to a very complicated skin disease called Psoriasis, this condition can be very challenging.
Reactive Arthritis – This causes joint pain and swelling. It is caused either due to infection or malfunction of key organs of your body including the intestines, genitals, or urinary tract.
Rheumatoid Arthritis – This is a chronic inflammatory disorder. In addition to affecting the different joints, it can deeply impact premier organs like heart, lungs and eyes.
When to See a Doctor?
Experts recommend seeking immediate medical attention if you notice specific symptoms, like
Stiff joints
Acute pain in the joints
Difficulty in moving or standing
Swelling observed in or around the joints
Redness observed in the joints
Treating ArthritisManaging Arthritis requires a systematic approach. It’s crucial not to overlook persistent symptoms as mere discomfort. Ignoring these signs can lead to costly consequences.
Your treatment is based on how severe is your condition and can include:
MedicationsDepending upon the type of Arthritis diagnosed, your medications may include:
Ointments
Steroids
Physiotherapies and light workouts to begin with
SurgeryThis is the last resort which your doctors might recommend only if there are no signs of improvement after persistent medication. Some of the types of surgeries successfully performed include,
Joint Repairs
Joint Replacements
Overcome Arthritis and lead a pain-free, confident life. Avoid welcoming Arthritis! Consult the top Arthroscopy Surgeon in Bangalore at Suguna Hospital for a safe and successful journey ahead.

I love it when old characters ("old", the minimum I consider old is 40 and even then, its the same vibe as saying an 18yo is an adult, it doesn't count but it also does) complain about pain symptoms and its literally just something I, a 23yo, have to deal with 24/7. Yes I would also kill somebody if they took my heat pack from me, yes I also have to constantly be moving or else my spine will make my life hell, yes I also always need a chair nearby because my knees will force me to listen to their complaints at the threat of them letting me fall (love slamming my chin on a bench or falling face first into the sink. I fell into a shopping cart once. In public.) Its just a big same. I get you buddy. 40 may not be old but neither is 23, we should not be putting up with this shit so young

long rambling personal about chronic pain under the cut
on thursday's pt session they were having me work with someone different cause my usual was taking time off. he asked if anywhere hurt more during an exercise and i said my knees and he got all serious and had me do a thumb hypermobility stretch and asked if eds runs in my family, if i experience any other joint pain and for how long. i told him 'uh idk' and 'yes all over' and 'as long as i can remember but it's gotten really bad in recent years and i also have nerve pain' and then we just kinda looked at each other. and then he was like '...alright keep going with the exercise, i'm thinking' and at the end when he said goodbye he seemed like sad or guilty and opened the door for me and i didn't realize why at the time because the session had been harder than any of the others but not like insane but OH MY FUCKING GOD has my pain been bad this weekend. it's times like these that i'm glad i live with my family.
and also. i researched eds in more depth and. it's fucking uncanny. how the hell did this not come up when i was researching before because it is like exact and touches on some symptoms i hadn't even considered to be related to my pain. if it's not heds it's probably hsd i guess?? which is
