1, rheumatoid arthritis, often involving the proximal phalangeal joints of fingers, has morning stiffness (fingers are stiff in the morning, it is difficult to make a fist), and the morning stiffness lasts for a long time, usually lasting for several hours, showing joint pain, symmetry and wandering. X-ray changes in the hand often have bone damage. Rheumatoid factor positive.

Articular osteoarthritis

Finger joints are painful and swollen, and bone spurs grow in the joints. Most of them occur in the knuckles at the ends of fingers,

It can also happen in the joints between fingers. Hypertrophic arthritis is generally older, mostly over 40 years old, first appearing in one or several fingers, and then involving other fingers. The diseased joints will be red, swollen and painful. Stiffness of joints is common in the morning and can be heavier, but it lasts for a short time, less than 20 minutes. X-ray examination showed hyperosteogeny.
