    Hi@cara

    Welcome to the online community family,how great it is that you have found us.

    You have stated that you have swollen fingers joints and extreme pain also burning stiff and cant make a fist.

    Here is a link that may help

    versusarthritison swollen joints cant make a fist - Bing video.

    It is very difficult if arthritis isnt showing up markers to make a diagnosis,i do hope these videos may help you to reach a conclusion.

    Meanwhile why dont you chat to others on the forums they are very helpful and understanding.

    Please keep in touch and tell us how you are getting on.

    All the best Christine
