Hello all, I am fairly new at my first RN job, (about 8 mths). I noticed about two weeks after pulling up some medicine from a glass bottle with a syringe and using my the thumb on my right hand to do so, (i've done it this way since the beginning) my thumb felt a little sore the next day. After about a week or so, my joint is now visibly larger than the left hand and is hurting more. Today I was charting and it started to hurt. Does anyone have any suggestions on what it could be and what i should do about it? I am a new employee and a new grad, do i need to tell someone at work. I've already found out about a hand doctor i'm thinking seeing next week. Any suggestions are welcomed and very much appreciated. Happy thanksgiving

Thanks so much!

Thank you!

What are some advantages & disadvantages of having the state nurses' association serve as the bargaining agent for the state's nurses? Please ALL opinions wanted & welcomed. I don't know much about this. Thank you Lynn

Any input is greatly appreciated! Our assignment was given yesterday and is due on Monday. To bring something to class that was used in nursing 50 years ago. Not a picture of something, but the actually thing used. With so little time,....I am stumped. Any suggestions?
