So far I have used just topical meds like voltaren. I ordered some Bee venom plus magnesium Come on spray and I weave only started to try it. I doubt it works as good as they say it does you know it’s supposed to be a miracle cure?. I had x-rays the other day and my fingers are bone on bone which has become worse than the x-rays I had in August. This seems to be progressing extremely fast for me. I don’t know how bad anybody’s pain is, but my fingers feel like sometimes that I have immerse them in fiberglass. There seems to be no I’m a reason which finger is gonna hurt today or tomorrow or five minutes from now. My pain isn’t steady and it doesn’t keep me from doing anything yet. I have the nodes, On both of my middle fingers, both of my ring fingers. As far as how to take care of all this, I use A lot of different things I use the cream I use heat I use Tylenol, I use Acupunture I’m on DULOXETINE for depression and they say it helps with pain. I’d try the acupuncturist. If It hurts it only hurts for a second.he put these little tiny needles i assume it’s around your nail area. It doesn’t hurt enough for me to not have. He is the first one to say that it might not work for everybody.
