The Signs and Symptoms of Arthritis

Published on May 11, 2016

Problems that affect the functionality of a person’s hand can be quite frustrating. One such issue is arthritis. In order to identify whether or not you are experiencing this problem, it will be helpful to know about the signs and symptoms of arthritis.

When a patient has arthritis, they may be dealing with a lot of pain in their hand and fingers. This may be accompanied by stiffness and a feeling of pressure. Patients may also notice severe swelling and inflammation in the joints of the fingers, hand, or wrist.

When these symptoms occur, it can cause restriction of motion and interfere with normal hand and finger functions, making one’s quality of life suffer.

Want to treat your arthritis effectively? If so, speak with Dr. David Morwood. Dr. Morwood has over 20 years’ experience as a plastic surgeon, he is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, he is a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, and for years he has served as either the chief or vice chief of the Division of Plastic Surgery of Monterey.
