Yes that helps a lot!!
Mine hurt at the 2nd knuckle & 3rd. They throb when I try to bend them or grab something. They feel so stiff. My index finger on my right hand gets puffed a bit and my rings feel tight in the mornings till about midafternoon. I've been checked for Lupus a few times as well. I think you're right. My dad has osteo real bad in his hands from years working as a supervisor at a Cement factory. Using his hands all the time took a lot of wear. His top knuckles have nodules.

Thanks, and I'll be sure to mention it to my Rheumy this visit.



Adios!
