Swollen fingers pain
My brother-50yrs was diagnosed with Catatonia 4 mths back and is taking pills for the same. He started feeling better but had general body ache which is gone now, but he has pain in his fingers when he clenches his fists, more so in his left hand. An ortho doc we consulted said it is stenosing stenostivitis, has a small lump at the base of his ring and middle finger in left hand. He suggested to put hands on hot water for a month and see or else a surgery to remove the lump. Pls advise 2nd opini
