What about finger osteoarthritis? How to treat finger osteoarthritis?
Finger osteoarthritis can be treated by the following methods:

First, rest properly to avoid excessive labor and hand activities, but not completely motionless, especially when getting up in the morning, to properly carry out passive activities of finger joints to prevent joint stiffness and adhesion.

Second, local physical therapy can be carried out, such as hot compress or physical therapy with a physical therapy instrument, and the strength of hand muscles can be properly practiced to prevent muscle atrophy.

Third, drug therapy should be taken, mainly anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs and drugs for swelling and cartilage nutrition. Some non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are commonly used as anti-inflammatory drugs, such as Aricoxib, Celecoxib, etoricoxib, diclofenac sodium, meloxicam and so on. You can choose one of them.

The commonly used detumescence drug is diosmin. Commonly used drugs for nourishing cartilage are glucosamine hydrochloride and chondroitin sulfate. If the above methods can't be alleviated, and the condition is obviously aggravated, surgery can be taken, but generally speaking, finger osteoarthritis should be avoided as much as possible.
