Rheumatoid Arthritis is a serious and complex auto-mimmune disease.

 

It cannot be self- diagnosed nor can it properly be self-prescribed for. Indeed, most of the disease modifying drugs used are prescription only.

 

I am  not sure why you specifically suspect RA (as opposed to say, osteoarthritis which is far more common) but you need to see a rheumatologist to confirm or rule this out. If you do have RA, it is essential to gert on appropriate treatment early to prevent development of permanent deformities.

 

Colchicine is not used for either RA or osteoarthritis, it is specifically a gout medication.

Gotta agree with Sheryl.  Go see a doctor and get a professional assessment of your condition.
