not me,my sister......she showed the Doc her swollen fingers and says,"wot's up Doc?" and the Doc replied that she had arthritic nodules on her fingers.."no i hivnae" replied my sister.."i ain't got no pain" she went on.
"aye you've got arthritis nodules alright,NEXT!" screamed the Doc at my wee sisters neck.
so fellow sufferers, can one have these nodules wae nae pain?

Yes. I got the nodules - lovely one on my R.index finger, plus a wee lump on it that I can roll around! Have swollen root of thumb and most of main knuckles.
Got trigger finger on L.middle finger, but intermittent.
Hands are fairly reasonable vis-a-vis pain. Feet are worse cause I have to walk on those...<LOL> (And horrible swollen ankles that pit - real 'ole ladies' ankles!!)

yes, i have them on the middle joint of all my fingers. and no, i really have no pain and only a little stiffness in those joints 99% of the time.
so yes, arthritic nodules. doctor gave them a specific name which i've promptly forgotten, but pretty asymptomatic otherwise.
