Had hip osteoarthritis for a few yrs, now getting wrist bone pain and inflammation on the bone and down into hand but not fingers. It comes &goes in flares which then causes weakness and stiffness. Dr says it could be osteoarthritis and she didn’t bother with a X-ray for me at hospital. Just want to know for sure
