Does joint pain after childbirth mean having postpartum wind?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I have been experiencing right hand joint pain since giving birth last year. My right pinky and ring fingers often hurt. I would like to ask if this is postpartum wind? What kind of help do you need: Is hand joint pain after giving birth a symptom of postpartum wind?

Doctor's answer:

After giving birth, I have hand joint pain, which may be caused by rheumatoid immune arthritis. It's best to check it out to confirm. It is recommended to visit the rheumatology outpatient department for follow-up, check rheumatology-related indicators to rule out diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and reactive arthritis. Symptomatic treatment can be given, and pain can be temporarily relieved with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as sodium diclofenac tablets and sodium naproxen tablets. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
