Over the last year or so I have developed nodules on my thumb and knuckle joints, anyone same experience.
I don't have any nodules I can see or feel but both my thumb and ring finger are extremely painfull and swollen, so much so I cannot grip anything making my left hand mostly useless. I have developed nodules on my elbow and now my collarbone though. I have also developed nodules in my lung, under investigation at the moment.
I have nodules on my arm near my elbow and have found a couple starting on my hand near the knuckle. Just one of the many joys of having R.A. unfortunately.
I developed a nodule on my foot at the joint by my pinky toe. I believe it was one of the reasons my doc chose to move me from methotrexate to Enbrel. After a year the nodule has pretty much faded. Martin, what are you taking for your RA?

I have them on my wrists and they are so painful and also on some knuckles.these diseases are awful aren't they
I take Sulfasalazine and sometimes Naproxen, it could be I've just had RA a long time 20 years nearly, or I now have the Rheumatoid Factor which I never had, see my Rheumatologist soon see what he thinks, thanks.
Hi I had a nodule surgically removed from my finger due to the fact it was getting in the way of the normal use of my hand.
Hello,
I have been diagnoised with RA and i get nodules on both thumbs, index and middle fingers. You're not alone. I have trouble knocking on doors so i have to slap them lol.
Take care
