Injection update

Dear Dr Bland, it is now just over one month since I had an injection in my left hand. It hasn't worked as well as the injection I had in my right hand May 2014. Although the numbness and tingling in my fingers is no longer a problem my wrist constantly aches, as does my whole arm. With both hands now I find it hard to bend my fingers without pain and discomfort, especially first thing in the morning. When I press the inside of my palms on both hands where the knuckles are it is very tender. I feel everything has tightened up in both hands now. Also, on the back of my left hand when I move the first finger a raised area appears together with a nodule. I am wondering whether this could be tendonitis. Perhaps this is not associated with CT. I also have pain at the base of my thumbs and tender to touch. I do believe I have arthritis in both my wrists. Movement does improve slightly during the day. Heat treatment seems to help. Hope the above makes some kind of sense to you and I would be grateful for your comments.
