I also have the joint pain from arthritis. My suggestion is go to a hand surgeon. They are aware of the newest techniques and procedures. I have been getting the shots for about 4 years but the positive effect from the shots do not last that long anymore. I am contemplating having the surgery on my non dominant hand (left) in the summer. My surgeon is on Long Island so I can not recommend a doctor in TV. The doctor told me he has a 100% success rate with the surgery but there is a long recovery period. 4 weeks in a cast and then in a brace until no longer needed.
