Doctor eval: If your pain has been present since September and recently increased, it is time to see a doctor. A hand specialist (either plastic or orthopaedic surgeon) should see you and examine your hand. They can tell you why your hand hurts and tell you the treatment options. Likely this can be treated without surgery.
