Brief Answer:
Please see the detailed answer below...

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service...

The first thing to do is to divert your mind and try to ignore things which are making you tensed...

It's a habitual problem, so if you're putting any particular finger, try to put nail protective covering over that so whenever the hands get elevated you'll be able to notice it...

Apart from that, for long-term relief, proper Psychological counseling under the supervision of a Psychologist should be tried...

Take Care
Kind Regards
