Traditional fx: The typical recommendations are rest, ice, compression and elevation. If you must work! a splint and nsaids may hold you temporarily but you should see a physician if this persists.

Where in hand: Need to clarify where the pain is. One joint or location or more than one. Is there swelling? Is it both hands or the dominat hand? Is it when you write? Is it when you type? How do you make it better? One suggestion is to stretch before and intermittently. You can warm your hands before and afterwards ice, but we need a better definition of your pain. It could be mechanical/inflammed.

Writer's cramp: This also may be a form of dystonia. It would be important to determine what is the actual cause of your hand pain. Treatments would very based upon what is causing it.
