I am 42 hrs old female and have pain in my ribs and finger joints when I wake up in the morning especially my right ring finger. What could be the cause. I suffer from hypothyroid and I am on/off medicines. Is there anything to worry?

Hi thanks for your query and welcome to lybrate. I am Dr. Akshay from fortis hospital, new delhi. You have mentioned pain in ribs and fingers, do you also feel stiffness in the joints especially when you get up in morning? also are small joints of foot also involved? I will advise you to get certain blood tests done like cbc, esr, crp, serum electrolytes, serum vitamin d and vitamin b 12 levels. Kindly get them done empty stomach from a good lab and send the reports across to me. Do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further assistance.
