A member asked:
I will get sharp pains in my hands that make me think they are fractured but they are not. could it be arthritis? what can i do to minimize the pain?

Uncertain : How long does the pain last? There can be a lot of reasons? It may not be arthritis . Your physician can evaluate you or have you see a rheumatologist. An evaluation is the best approach to solving your problem.
