I was wondering if this is an issue for others. They always hurt some but lately much worse. My first areas of pain were one hand/wrist and then the other hand/wrist and then progressed from there. When my hands and wrists first started hurting years ago I had alot of testing and the tests were all normal so the Dr diagnosed it as tendonitis - I did not have widespread pain then. I am having functional trouble with my hands because of the pain.. I cant take anti-inflamms or steroids - they make me so sick.
My wrists often feel like I have sprained them when I have done no activity with my arms, and my hands also get a strange phenomenon where they feel like they are literally burning internally. The only thing that I can do is run to the sink and run ice cold water over them for a few minutes. After that I am usually left with stiff, blotchy hands and prickily feeling fingers.
I am sorry you are going through such terrible pain, hang in there! Have you tried any arthritis creams? Maybe that would help a little.
