Do I have a form of Arthiritis?!
Question: Do I have a form of Arthiritis.?
Hi there,
I've been really worried lately. I play Piano (I love playing so much), but recently I have had a bit of dicomfort in my fingers, they even feel stiff sometimes. Is this Arthiritis.? I am only 16, but I know you can get it early. I also used to click my fingers quiet a lot, I've stopped now though because I'm scared about the long term damage. My plan was to go to University and study Piano performance, But I'm really worried I have arthiritis now :-(
Please help
ThanksHealth Question & Answer

It could be anything from Arthuritis to Rhumitism. There are several things over the counter you could try like condriotin and glusomine, these come as drinks and power, pills now. They both are produced by the body and are both a fluid replacement and a mild pain reliever the baby makes, some people don't make enough of it.
You could try the many types of over the counter pain relievers on the market also. Seeing a doctor and asking him would give you the oppertunity to get relief through pain meds or some of the many drugs for these conditions.Health Question & Answer
