A member asked:

Previously had pharyngitis got cured had some trouble in breathing went to doc he said infection is bk know i am having pain in my ri8 hand plzz help?

SORRY: i suggest that your hand pain has nothing to do with your upper respiratory infection. i would suggest resting the hand and perhaps taking a small amount of ibuprofen (400mg). Failing that see your doctor for advice.
