Hi
Thanks for choosing HCM for your query.
Well, I have gone through the problems discussed in your question.
Elevated ESR associated with pain in the right hand is suggestive of some sort of inflammation of joints of your hand.
If you were my patient I would have asked for few more investigations like CBC, Rh factor, C reactive protein to come to a conclusion of joint inflammation.
ESR, Rh factor, Uric acid, C reactive protein and some other investigations are routinely advised as arthritis profile which help in the diagnosis of inflammatory arthritis.

Take some NSAID pain killers till the results are done.
consult a doctor with all these investigations for proper treatment,
If convinced with the above explanation, give your valuable feed back.
