My son has not received his Dx, but the specialist put him on methatrexate anyway due to his pain swelling in the hands and ankles. He has lost mobility in his fingers. He can't close his hand into a fist or flatten it out on a table palm down. Where he works they have a hand sensor for clocking in, and he is unable to use it anymore. It seems like his tendons are inflamed. Is this typical for RA? Should he be doing exercises to try and improve his mobility?
