New pain in my hands. Feels like their cramping. I need my hands for work. Any ideas to relive this?

Hi Kim,

Some people use Epsom salts in the bath and say it helps their pain. I suppose you cold try hot water soak in the morning before you go to work and see a) if it helps and b) how long for. If necessary I suppose you could take some to work and soak them at lunchtime although may look dodgy !
