Hurts when i try to lift something or shake someone's hand is it sprained or broken what should i do?

Could be either: If you injured your hand, and it is swollen, bruised, and painful, it could be broken. If you did not do anything to it, but it hurts, it could be a strain, arthritis, or nerve issue. Seek the care of an orthopedic surgeon or musculoskeletal specialist.

Concerned about Parkinsons. My hands have been jittery when I try to use a fork (like very, very fine jittering). And my hands/arms shake when I try to open a pickle jar. No jitters at rest. I dont drink caffeine. Could this be early Parkinsons?
