I have severe pain in my hands. I am 53-year-old mechanic and have always used my hands to work. What can I do?

Sorry to hear that you are in pain, but its one of those unfortunate consequences that stop certain people doing their job.

A friend of my wife's is a former hairdresser who now teaches as she can't practice because of the pain in her fingers.

I wrote a series of blogs on understanding and managing pain, please have a look at the information in them.

If you would consider applying some Atrogel^® before and after work, at lunchtime and before bed, you should find some good relief.

The other remedy to consider is our Atrosan^® Devils Claw tablets, which work on the inside to reduce inflammation in the joints but without upsetting the stomach.

Best wishes
