I don't know if anyone else has this problem, but I have had chronic hand pains for years. And sometimes it can slow down my sewing, quilting, painting, gardening, etc. My daughter recently bought me a pair of Isotoner's therapeutic gloves... and I was able to make an entire quilt for my new granddaughter in time for Christmas. They reduce the pain and swelling and they don't restrict my movement... or creativity :). Their website is www.isotonertherapy.com. If you have similar problems or any kind of hand pain these will help you. Let me know if they do help. Happy Holidays!
