Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without examining the hand. Was there any trauma to the hand? Is there a swelling, redness or other visible abnormality? If there is no visible abnormality try tylenol (acetaminophen) and if the pain does not go away in a couple of days or gets worse, see your doctor.

See a hand person: Unless the pain is getting better, see a hand specialist. Many things can cause hand pain. Your sounds significant and should be evaluated.
