Since last month i have been feeling mild pain in my right hand. i do not feel like using the touch pad as it makes me curl my fingers a lot. last month i barely enjoyed using pens and writing on paper. i started feeling an increase in stiffness yesterday when i was in the gym and lifting a rod. the fist wasnt very strong. i sometimes workout with punching bag so i could relate that it wasnt a strong fist. that got me worried. today, the pain isnt much.there is mild stiffness in my thumbs, very dull pain felt only once or twice in my left wrist. But it isnt very natural. Fist is decent strong today. i started doing some finger movement exercises yesterday, but i doubt it might be the reason for better fingers today.

Some History:
I was overweight - approx 90kgs - 5ft 6 inches till 22. i started working out and then lost weight. i enjoyed running a lot and i did that on roads. eventually, 3 years ago when i was around 26-27 i started feeling pain in left knee while climbing down the stairs. i stopped, visited a doctor. I went for physiotherapy but stopped due to my job which requires me to travel a lot.

Last year i started feeling pain in my left palm - at the base of the thumb during push-ups. i was told to get MRI which revealed cysts. Though i couldnt get surgery done at that time due to my job and marriage. In may i thought of getting a second opinion and i was told by Dr. Maninder Shah Singh that it is just joint degeneration and nothing can be done about it apart from taking precautions. Though at that time this problem wasnt sufficient enough for me to tell it to him. He also told me that i must do knee, hip abd and vmo strengthening workout.
