Vascular disorders of the upper extremity are uncommon, but ones that may have lasting implications. Arteries bring oxygenated blood from the heart to the fingertips and veins return the used blood back to the heart and lungs.
In a normal joint, cartilage covers the end of the bones and serves as a shock absorber to allow smooth, pain-free movement. In osteoarthritis (OA, or degenerative arthritis) the cartilage layer wears out, resulting in direct contact between the bones and producing pain and deformity. One of the most common types of OA in the hand is arthritis at the base of the thumb.
