I havent been able to wear my wedding rings for years now. And i also have aches and pains in my hands. It sometimes feels like i have muscle knots in my hands. I also have the pains in my wrists and usually spreads into the first inch of my forearm.

My hands and fingers have been hurting bad for months. My pain dictor told me to try aspercream and it really helped.

Yes I have it everyday it never goes away for me. I've been checked for rheumatoid arthritis all the other order immunes to make sure it wasn't that. But you do get swelling and cramping and the extremities from fibromyalgia. That's and my legs as well. So it does not let me work because I can't press keys I use a voice for even this on my phone. It's no fun the tips of my fingers I so sensitive and the creases where the fingers come out of the actual hand itself is so stiff in the morning that it's ridiculous. It's one of my worst symptoms for me. Not everybody has this for long but I do. Gentle hugs and best wishes I hope this helped. Heating pad Works me. Lyrica helps for my legs but not as much for my hands
