You cannot get rid of arthritis, but you can have surgery to treat your arthritis. In the hand, there are many surgical procedures that we perform for arthritis including joint reconstruction, joint replacement and fusion, depending upon the specific joint and the arthritis. I would recommend that you consult a hand surgeon to be evaluated and discuss what can be done to help your specific condition. Good luck.
