Hand pain is a discomfort or ache felt in one or both hands, which can range from mild to severe and may affect daily activities and quality of life. This pain can be localized to specific areas of the hand, such as the fingers, palms, or wrists, or it may be diffuse. Common causes of hand pain include repetitive strain injuries like carpal tunnel syndrome, where pressure on the median nerve leads to pain, tingling, and weakness in the hand and fingers. Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are also frequent culprits, causing joint inflammation, stiffness, and pain. Other causes include tendinitis, which is inflammation of the tendons, usually from overuse, and gout, a type of arthritis resulting from uric acid crystals forming in the joints. Hand pain can also result from trauma or injuries, such as fractures or sprains, and conditions like Raynaud's phenomenon, where blood flow to the fingers is reduced. Treatment for hand pain depends on the underlying cause. For repetitive strain injuries, rest, ergonomic adjustments, and splinting can be effective. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or corticosteroids may be prescribed to manage pain and inflammation. Physical therapy can help with strengthening exercises and improving hand function. In cases of arthritis, disease-modifying medications or joint injections may be used. For tendinitis or injury-related pain, rest, ice application, and physical therapy can aid in recovery. If hand pain persists or is severe, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for accurate diagnosis and tailored treatment.
