Summary

This is a study involving people receiving care at the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center, Houston Texas. We are studying people who have hand osteoarthritis (the most common form of arthritis that involves the hand) and testing treatments for the condition with the hope that we can help to improve hand pain as well as limit the damage that occurs related to the arthritis. People who choose to participate, are randomly assigned to one of two treatments, both expected to be helpful.
