Playing and Arthritis
Posted: Sun Feb 05, 2012 2:22 am
I'm 61 and have a little bit of arthritis in a couple of my finger joints. It comes and goes and it is not debilitating yet...but does hurt when it flares up.
Any thoughts or medical opinions on whether playing is going to make this worse in the long run? I love playing but no longer make my living as a musician. Doing real damage to myself in the long run is probably not worth it.
What say ye old guys out there?
