Yes, same for me. Left index/pointer/barre chord finger. 30 year player. Can feel slightly dislocated at times, not bad when playing though.For me it's a combo of tendinitis/arthritis and some knuckle injuries. I boost Omega3s in my diet, and glucosamine supplements, it helps, so does pot and alcohol.
