Yesterday, I whacked my knuckle. I am not sure where or when but I think it was when I was bringing in the groceries. All of a sudden my knuckle was red and swollen and a little bit purple. It began to swell and turned more and more purple.
I don't know about you but this happens to me frequently. Not like every day or every other day. Probably two or three times a month. All of a sudden a knuckle or knee is red and swollen and turning purple and I can't remember where or when I whacked it. I am sure I didn't hit it hard, I am sure I would remember that. I think with RA I don't have to hit it hard, just in the right place or the right way and BAM, it is red and swollen.
I have even stopped trying to figure it out. Why? Because I feel I have wasted too much time trying to figure out how I bruised myself. I figure if it wasn't something that I can remember, it probably wasn't something that important. Okay, I have another bruise. Whoopee! At any time I can have 10 or more bruises on my body. What is one more?
The knuckle feels better today and looks better. Have you had this problem?
Until tomorrow...
