Clicking in right ring finger
I have a clicking feeling in my right ring finger when lying down / sleeping. It's very acute in the early mornings, and after getting up slowly vanishes. Sometimes there is a slight pain at the juncture of the finger. Can't rest the finger as I am a professional illustrator who has to draw with that hand..! Whenever I lie down, it comes back! What is this problem, and is there any home remedy for this?
