I had my orthopedic appointment today. Discussing my X-ray made me happy. 
What can be done for your hand?
My hand is actually OK. The earlier pain seems to have been a bruise that has now
healed, and the X-ray shows an old avulsion fracture to my left index finger ... there
is no need to treat that either, I am just intrigued to know what caused the swelling
in the finger. As I suspected, I also have mild arthritis in some finger joints.
