I don't take anything, just kinda cope with it. Can't really give you anything. My hands hurt 24/7 but believe it or not, knowing what Is wrong with them, and wearingthe wrist splints (no matter how dumb they look) put me at ease. Plus, it goes away when our babies come so that's a bonus! Not too long now :)

I just wore something on my wrist to keep it sturdy, it helped a lot.

Sounds like carpal tunnel syndrome. Look it up, and ask your doctor. I started getting the same feeling about a month or two ago, and posted on here crying about it myself hun. I understand, my hands hurt writing you lol. Doc will tell you to get some splints to ease the pain which helps, mildly. It tends to be the worse when I wake up in the morning

Its like tingling, and then when I do "close open" on my hand felt the circulation is flowing. When I sleep and woke up it hurt then it go away, then come back. I just dont know what to do. Im teary coz of the pain. I just wanna hear if its normal. if its not I need to see my doctor asap. Im 32+6 so I guess coz im getting closer thats why I got this pain.

I was diagnosed with carpal tunnel. I'm 23 years old :/ said it is a pregnancy symptom and should go away after birth. Idk if that's your problem. Nothing to cure it but I do wear wrist splints a lot to keep my hands from going numb. Idk what kind of pain you're experiencing. ..
