Hi Nikki @weenikkib a quick hello from me.
I was interested in your post because I read something about erosive osteoarthritis a while ago. Are they going to try any medications for your hands - I take it it is your hands?
If it is I know a lot of people find heat most useful. Some have tried paraffin wax baths (ask the physio don't try it at home😂
A friend of mine exercises her hands in a bowl of warm water just squeezing natural sponges.
Anyway nice to meet you
Toni x
