I believe I have arthritis in my hand at the CMC joint of the thumb.  It swells and I experience some itching.  Does this go along with arthritis?  or is it something else?

    I also have noticed this on my thumb and fingers affected by osteoarthritis. I think there is a connection.

The breakdown of cartilage in the knee can lead to bony protrusions called spurs and considerable joint pain.
