New Diagnosis any help??
Hi there I have recently been diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the fingers in its hands. I had a steroid injection in one hand to see how that went.
It did take away the pain and lasted nearly 3 months but has just worn off.
I wondered of anyone else has this in their fingers and knows or has any tips on how to live with this or ease the pain. My fingers are constantly sore and wanted to check if another treatments other than the steroid injections
Thanks

Hi @Atrainor83,
Welcome to the versus arthritis forum.
I see that you have OA in your fingers and have had a steroid injection which helped eased the pain for a period. You’d like to hear from any forum members who can offer advice on living with your condition and can suggest any alternative treatments.
