Joint Nodules

Recently some kind of nodules suddenly started growing on the first joint of my pinkie fingers. They seemed to be growing larger quickly and the joints started to hurt. I showed them to my friends who said they were arthritis. In the past I have used iodine to shrink moles so I thought I'd try putting it on these nodules. Within a couple of weeks of daily painting the nodules started to shrink and now are non existent. The pain disappeared almost as soon as I started using the iodine.
