Hi all,

Merrty Christmas x;)

I hope you are all having a lovely relaxing day. I'm sorry to say I'm having problems just now with my hands and feet, they obviously are not aware that it's Christmas and therefore should be behaving!!!

I've got suspected OA in fingers and thumbs, just waiting for xray results. I've been told I have OA in my big toe on my left foot but I'm sadly now getting the same pain in my right big toe. If anyone else has OA in their big toe, does the joint bend up? I know they can start to turn inwards towards other toes but my right one seems to bending up the way.

Thanks,

Magenta x

    Aw Eileen
    Bless......I'm so sorry you have OA in toes.
    I havent so cant give you any info
    The one thing I do know is that your big toe helps you to balance so it must be very painful
    Love

    Hello Hileena and Julie,

    I meant to say MERRY Christmas :oops:

    Thanks for replying to me on today of all days! It's not great but I'll just keep taking the pain-killers and use some freeze spray on them. I'm away to get some wine-that'll dull the pain eh?

    Hope you are both having a good day,

    Hi Magenta

    With regards to your toes my little toe on left foot has arched upwards in the middle and seems to have locked there. It does make it painful on walking and wearing shoes. Oooochy ouch :smile: Did not know that such a little toe could make so much pain.

    Love n hugs
