But on a serious note one of my fingers is a bit like this, im off to do some googling. Good luck.

Can you elaborate? About 10 years ago (age 28) I started doing a bit of cycling to and from work - not loads, maybe 60 miles a week - and a few months in noticed some pain in the final joints of my little fingers. Doc said yep, it's arthritis, bad luck chap nothing we can do. A couple of years later, the pain had gone away but the joint is entirely fused on one hand. Ever since I've been paranoid about it coming back and crippling my hands but so far nothing untoward although I'm sure it's only a matter of time.

Are you implying there could be some link with the cycling?

When i used to do a lot of riding a few months ago, i used to get very bad pains in my knuckles afterwards, sometimes too much pain to use my hands, and i believe it was to do with the amount of time on my bike. Never went to see my doctor or anything as i noticed it used to go away after around a couple of hours but do not get them now ever since i stopped riding.

Bouchard's are the ones.

In that case you have a touch of Osteoarthritis, that's your diagnosis.

Oh dear God, I am only 38 ( just )

I'm 28 and have been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis and also have one of these lumps on my finger.
