Regarding diagnosis - Buerger's disease

2025-08-27 17:12:59
Hey doc, I have been smoking cigarettes for like 5 years from 2020-2022 of about 3 a day and from 2024- till yesterday about 7 to 8 a day in gradual way. The reason being consulting here is because i had a little pain in my right index finger of my hand with which i mostly smoke. So, after a little googling i came to know about the disease. Is there any indications to buergers disease. Why i am having a little swelling and pain to that particular index finger? Do i have swollen right index finger or i am overthinking it.
