[|Human|] I am a 70 year old white female with a soft firm pink bump size of a small green pea that suddenly erupted 4 months ago on top of my knuckle ( second knuckle back from the fingernail) on left hand, middle finger. It is not causing pain or restriction of movement. Another 2nd one of same description is starting up now , but still very smaller, on the next finger ( pointing finger) in the same location as of the first bump. Is this arthritis? Thankyou, Carol.

[|AI|]  HI, Dear,Carol MDM. Very Good NOON from India. Thanks for your query. I understand your concerns. I studied your query in depth.-I would advise you not to worry still. In my opinion the painful lump in the 2nd and 3rd middle-knuckles is -mostly Rheumatoid Arthritis- /or could be due to digital mucous cysts of the small joints common at this age? Or Granuloma annular cell granulomas around small joints.-Treatment-would be -Consult an ER Physician/ Rheumatologist doctor-who treat it as per the cause of the digital lumps.-Hope this reliefs your worry-some query. Welcome for any more queries in time to come. Have a Good Day.
