One knuckle has gotten so swollen that the skin on top is starting to split, paper-cut style. I don't want to waste the time and money going to a Dr. I'll go to my local herbalist soon, but in the meantime, any ideas on how to make it stop hurting?

You might want to try these methods:


I cook with olive oil because of its' healing properties and put turmeric while cooking my rice as that seems to be the most effective method for me right now. Should I find any good recipes that call for turmeric, I'll be sure to pass them along. ;)

May I ask what your herbalist gave you for arthritis? a family member of mine's getting worse and would like to try some natural remedies instead of opting for doctor medicines

That sounds painful, hope you find something that helps!

A tea of wild opium lettuce and wood betony helped the most for pain. CBD oil helped with the swelling.

CBD oil may help. I think it helped my knee once. Didn't hurt.

Ha ha, just saw that you used CBD oil. :)

Stretching and exercise is supposed to improve circulation to prevent inflammation.
