Inflamed finger joint

2018-02-20 16:58:47
I have an inflamed index finger joint that has built up over the weekend. on Monday I was given antibiotics and I have begun taking them this morning. I'm starting to experience localised itching in the joint and was wondering if this was due to the antibiotics or whether it was more likely that my finger is getting worse
