If you have rheumatoid arthritis and you are on medication if your hand is swollen can you put ice on it?



to help the swelling to go down. Hand has been swollen for a month, and the meds are not helping the swelling?

Ice won't help it at this point. I suggest you use heat instead. Also, ask your doctor if you can take an anti-inflammatory.
