Stiff fingers

[pilkers]

Over the last 2/3 weeks I have noticed that my fingers are really sore and stiff. I can't grip things hard with either hand. It's not an unbearable pain but it just feels like my fingers aren't working. It hurts to bend them too.

Any ideas what it could be????

I've got that, but it's because ever since I've had LO, the more frequent handwashing has caused all the moisture to be stripped from my hand (mind you, it's only the one hand - strange!?!) leading to irritant dermatitis. And so the skin is not as flexible as before and it's always chapped. I've needed to get some steroid cream and emollients from the GP to ease the problem.
