Stiffness and Pain in Fingers and Toes - #50465

My fingers are stiff mainly in morning. Sharp pains as well and they feel inflamed and fat... hard to bend. Toes are stiff and sharp pain. Middle toe overlaps the toe beside the baby toe. When this happens the base of my toes where they meet the foot spread and it hurts. But toes are always stiff. When I walk too long the bottom of foot that meets the toes hurts mainly near the Middle and 4th toe.

Hello dear, you need to go for a CBC,Esr,RA, uric acid,ANA,Hs CRP and serum creatinine. Do you have any other symptoms like reduced appetite,feverish feeling, mouth dryness, weakness, heaviness of body gastric issues or bowel difficulty? As for now Taking rasna shuntyadi kashaya 15 ml twice daily before food Sudarsana vati 1tab before food Punarnavasava 30 ml twice daily after food Sinhnada guggulu 2 tab mixed with kashaya Hinguvachadi choorna 3gm thrice daily before food mixed with butter milk Panchasakara choorna 5 gm at bed time. These symptoms will provide considerable relief in pain and swelling in your joints but the above mentioned tests are necessary to understand and cure your symptoms better as an auto immune condition can be suspected. Please reach out soon with the concerned reports. In ayurveda this is symptom of ama in your body and I have prescribed a good ama reducing prescription.
