Mollsmum Jul 2013 2:33pm, 12 Jul 2013 49 posts	0 Mollsmum This is really not a running related question, but I have been having pain and swelling in the first joint of my left index finger for a few weeks now. I'm not in agony, but it is worse in the morning when I am trying to get ready/make breakfast etc.. How long should I ive it before I see my GP?
