Finger joint pain?

I've been experiencing bad finger joint pain for the past few weeks. I don't know if it's carpal tunnel b/c my wrists don't hurt and there's no numbness at all. It hurts the most when I wake up. My fingers are swollen and I can't bend them. Throughout the day, the pain lessens but never completely goes away.

Anyone else have this?

Re: Finger joint pain?

Yes. I have carpal tunnel but I think it is water retention that ultimately causes it. I am experiencing some major edema in my legs ankles and feet. But my fingers I can tell are swollen because of this feeling when I bend them. My wrists don't always hurt but I do have crazy numbness. You are likely retaining water unfortunately. Good thing all these go away two weeks after we give birth!!

It's just so weird b/c my hands, legs, and feet aren't swollen at all. Just my fingers! The pain in the morning is horrible but once I start moving around, the swelling goes down and the pain lessens.
