What Is The Biggest Cause Of Pain In Your Hand?

1.  Do you know the most common cause of pain in your hand, arm, fingers and thumb?

2.  Do you know the cause that doctors overlook the most?

The answer to both questions is (drumroll, please) muscles!  Plain old everyday muscles.  Why?

The job of muscles is to move your bones.  Bones go nowhere without muscles.  So muscles are pretty busy.

But sometimes we use muscles in ways that make them ‘too tight.’  Or we use them so little that they become weak.  Then we have muscle imbalance and that is a big cause of pain.

The unhappy muscles that are causing pain in your hand can

be in your hand, your arm, your chest, your back or your neck!

Every part of your body is attached to your hands and arms.  So whatever is happening elsewhere can be reflected in your hands.  Whatever is happening in your body can cause pain or other symptoms in your hands.  🙁

And you won’t usually have pain in just your hands.  There is a very good chance that you will also have pain in your back or head or arms, too.

The interesting thing about chest muscles is that when they are too tight, short or strong they usually don‘t hurt.  Your only clue is that you have pain in your arms, back or hands.

And when backs complain, it is often because of chest muscles!

So when you have pain in your hands, there is a reason.  The reason is most likely muscles that are unhappy somewhere along the line from your head to your fingers.

But what about nerves?  They can cause symptoms in your hand, too.  Guess what most often presses on nerves and makes them unhappy?  You got it–muscles!

Take good care of your muscles and you can get rid of the pain in your hands.
