I have had RA for over 40 years. None of the standard medications have helped me.
For hand and wrist pain, I have used compression gloves, cold mitts, warm mitts and CBD balm.
I wear only highly cushioned sneakers and trail running shoes.
I stopped Humira and Methotrexate almost a year ago due to ineffectiveness.

In August of this year, I started on 4.5 mg of Low Dose Naltrexone. This has relieved my symptoms about 80%,
I hope you find some relief 🥰
