64yr male. no heart condition nor hypertension nor diabetes. no severe illness that need emergency care.? - foot drop edema
no known kidney or liver. The patient is of African origin. Seal between the proximal phalanx are swollen and painful, and can not bend. Pain is worse in the morning, directed especially when for a long day b4. inablity hold eating utensils. Swelling of the hands and feet rather than edema. He can not make a fist, and sometimes more than the pain radiates from the hand to the shoulder. is a bilateral condition. What is possible? We visited several doctors, but I need a good diagnosis. What do you think is a specialist and do u recommend? I am also a health and can diagnose a heart attack when I see, so do not worry. This is not a case of heart failure. It is a poor man in constant pain, can not eat in public bcos its so embarrassing when the owner drops his hands. also buy more shoes and more because of swelling in the feet. welcome a seasoned professional who helped me. Thanks

My grandmother had a similar problem last winter and this man was in shape, but couldnt move. It is btw Wen degenerating arthritis synovial fluid of joints and is difficuly movement. He lived a very difficult time as their regular medical treatment were injections and I think he has pneumonia and I do not think it was), cuz they participate in (common problem but it is an old case of asthma, May, and B, the I'm so sure, NT. Well, it took 6 months for ALRT, not couldnt move at all, couldnt hold your dish, couldnt himself on a diet, massage regularly to keep warm, but had a miserable time. I can not forget the darkness that has set in these few months and weakness! I pray that this man is better, God bless you! I know it's terrible.
Perhaps a rheumatologist may be able to make a diagnosis. What kinds of tests are done already?
