Symptoms of hand osteoarthritis can vary in intensity and may affect one or multiple joints in the fingers or thumb, but commonly include:

• Pain or aching in the affected joints, often during or after use.
• Stiffness, especially on waking or after rest
• Swelling or tenderness around the finger or thumb joints
• Reduced grip strength or difficulty holding objects.
• Bony enlargements (nodes) at the joint surfaces
• Cracking, grinding or clicking sensations during movement.

These symptoms can impact day-to-day activities and make fine motor tasks more challenging.
