Can't get the pickle jar opened?

Do you have big nobs at the joints of your fingers?   Do your fingers feel like they've "frozen up" during the night and it takes several minutes of gentle motion and some ibuprofen to get them loosened up enough to get breakfast?  Many people think nothing about having a knee or hip replaced if they have arthritis in those joints, but have never even considered a surgical approach for relief of arthritic pain in the hands. Many family practice Doctors erroneously tell their patients "well, that's  arthritis and you're just getting old.   You just have to get used to that". Did you know that every joint in the hand can be addressed to bring you relief of the constant pain  in your hand  and finger joints.  There are little implants (that look a lot like knee implants) for some joints, while fusion of some joints is the answer.   If a joint doesn't move it doesn't hurt.   Don't live in  constant pain and misery.   Come see what can be done to bring you relief.   Knowledge is vital.   When you know what can be done, then you can decide what's the best thing for you.   But, do not sit around any longer in misery, not being able to get your car started or that jar of pickles opened,  assuming that nothing can be done. You will be surprised.
