The second joint of the ring finger hurts

Pain in the second joint of the ring finger may be caused by excessive force, which leads to damage to the soft tissue of the joint, or even an increase in uric acid content in the body, which leads to the formation of uric acid crystals in the joint, causing rheumatic joint pain.

1. Soft tissue injury: mainly occurs when exercising, which can cause damage to muscles and ligaments other than the bones, and may even cause varying degrees of damage to surrounding nerves and blood vessels, causing pain. Mild patients can be relieved by hot compresses, while when the symptoms are more severe, it is necessary to apply blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing ointments, which is conducive to relieving pain symptoms and improving injury symptoms.

2. Uric acid crystals: This is mainly caused by abnormal purine metabolism in the body, which will result in the body's own uric acid being unable to be effectively excreted. It will be deposited in the joints, causing tophi and pain in the joints. If the content of uric acid crystals is relatively high, surgery is required to remove the crystals from the joints.

3. Rheumatic joint pain: It is an immune disease that causes pain in the joints. You need to go to the hospital in time for a comprehensive examination of the joints. You can also take immunosuppressive drugs under the guidance of a doctor, which is beneficial to relieve the pain in the joints. During the treatment, you also need to pay attention to keeping the joints warm to avoid worsening pain.
