Hands are clenched into fists. If your fingers hurt and do not clench into a fist, you need to contact a rheumatologist. Movement exercises that keep the joints active

In the morning I can’t clench my hand into a fist, it hurts, what should I do and what kind of illness?

This is how rheumatoid arthritis can manifest itself, affecting primarily small symmetrical joints (polyarthritis), which is why pain occurs when the hand is clenched into a fist (especially during waking hours).

It is necessary to pass tests for rheumatic tests and calcium, as well as an X-ray of the hands. But such symptoms can also occur with osteoarthritis, and sometimes they occur due to prolonged stress on the joints associated with the characteristics of the life of a particular person (for example, he works a lot on a computer).

In any case, an accurate diagnosis by a specialist and timely treatment are needed so that joint deformity does not occur.

It could be carpal tunnel syndrome. It is manifested by pain in the wrist and a feeling of tension in the tendons in the wrist area. And more numbness in the fingers.

The cause (etiology) of the syndrome is swelling and thickening of the tendons and pinching of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel (carpal tunnel) or swelling and thickening of the nerve itself.

This is due to a prolonged load on the corresponding muscle group, when the hand wore, served, cleaned, scraped or drove around the table with a mouse, etc. for a long time.

This disease is diagnosed by a neurologist.

Treatment: sparing position of the hand while working on the computer, wearing a special bandage, drugs that improve blood circulation.

If the interphalangeal joints of the fingers are thickened, deformed (twisted), with such symptoms, one should think about nonspecific infectious polyarthritis, rheumatoid polyarthritis. Age matters. In old age, all kinds of arthrosis develop. If there was hard physical work the day before with a load on the fingers or physical exercises, then God himself ordered that after that it was difficult to squeeze the fingers into a fist. This is a functional passing state.

Something similar happened to me here and lasted a week, then it went away on its own (I didn’t have time to get to the doctor):

woke up in the morning at new year holidays. The right hand (hand) was noticeably swollen, the sensitivity was gone, I couldn’t even move my fingers especially, I couldn’t Clench into a FIST either! Only in the "half-fist", then it hurts and is scary.

There were no injuries, I searched for the cause, searched in my head - I did not find it.

Polyclinics are closed during the New Year holidays, it seemed “hot” to contact an ambulance.

I read a lot on the Internet: it looks like arthritis, arthrosis, and stuff like that.

I'm YOUNG.)) What the hell, arthritis. Aaaah!

I couldn't use a keyboard or write with a pen, of course.

The hand departed only if held in warm water or after taking a hot bath.

In the morning things were really bad, in the evening it was better.

When I waited for the end of the holidays and came to the clinic, the obvious signs and symptoms had already passed (they passed on their own! I am against the thoughtless use of drugs (I try to refrain from them in principle). I did not take anything).

All doctors (therapist, surgeon, vascular surgeon, neuropathologist) shrugged. So we don't know what it was.

Good day. The news is not very good. It can be an intervertebral hernia, and gout, or microcrystalline arthritis (salt deposition) is caused by metabolic disorders, nutritional errors, kidney disease, and stress. With gout in the blood is observed elevated level uric acid. Sodium crystals begin to be deposited in the joints, the joint swells and gives severe, sometimes unbearable pain. Maybe the heart makes itself felt, in any case, you don’t need to look for an answer here, but go to the doctor. The further, the worse it will be and will not resolve itself. In the end, the hand can turn into an umbrella.

There are many different tests in which an individual's personality is associated with certain parts of the body.

But there is one part of the body that displays the character much better than the rest - these are our hands.

One simple example: comparison of lefties and righties. Those with a dominant left hand are considered more creative and more easily frightened or angered than right-handers. Another example is palmistry, when the lines on the palms can indicate our character traits, personality and destiny.

Another way we can analyze personality is the way we make a fist.

A close examination of your own fist and finger placement will determine some aspects of your personality.
There are three main types of fists that are shown in the picture. Now clench your hand into a fist. Are you type A, B or C?

You tend to help people even when it brings you some inconvenience. You are constantly in search of new knowledge and impressions, extremely energetic and a little impatient. People like you are called adventurers and daredevils, but at the same time, it would never occur to many how often excitement overtakes you and how much you yourself sometimes need help and protection. Recognition and acceptance is vital for you, because often you come across people who take advantage of your kindness. But a strong inner core, nevertheless, does not allow you to become limp and completely give up on people. You still continue to protect and protect those in need, except that you become a little more circumspect.

Option B

You are sociable, attract the most different people. Friends love you for your sincerity and sharp mind. You are self-confident, you have a strong sense of dignity. You are diligent and agile, which makes you both an excellent ringleader among friends and a good leader in business matters. However, fear of failure often prevents you from making bold decisions, as it can greatly hurt your pride. You often need approval and praise. Well, it's not that bad. Most importantly, do not stop believing in yourself, even if you are not told how good you are. After all, it is quite possible that you just found yourself among people who envy your success.

Option C

You are witty and eloquent, but somewhat shy, which does not allow these qualities to be fully manifested. Therefore, many people consider you silent and not inclined to communicate. You are thoughtful, pedantic and sometimes require too much of yourself, which leads to unnecessary anxiety. You are shrewd, trying not to disturb your inner harmony. People close to you are very comfortable with you. Sometimes you become unbearably sad at the thought that you cannot easily build relationships like this, easily join new teams and be the soul of the company. But do not take it to heart, because it is enough to become a little more flexible and friendlier, and people who were previously afraid to approach you will immediately reach out to you.

Everything starts sometime. Here is such an incomprehensible ailment, when you cannot clench your hand into a fist, it seems to come from nowhere and suddenly. What could be the reasons for this phenomenon? There are many reasons, as usual. Let's name a few of the most important.

Problems with the spine

Sometimes a person cannot clench his hand into a fist if he has problems with the cervical and thoracic spine, more precisely, with the fifth, sixth and seventh cervical and first, second and third thoracic vertebrae. A CT scan should be done, the pictures usually show everything at once.

Sick stomach or intestines

Yes, a diseased gastrointestinal tract can be the source of many health problems. For example, an infection that has entered the intestines and caused inflammation can complication on the joints and cause inflammation. It is possible that in this case, a sick stomach or intestines gives such a side effect. Doesn't hurt to check.

This reason is perhaps the most serious. A person wakes up at night due to whining in the elbow or shoulder, or twisting the knee. After the massage, he feels better. But over time, the pain not only does not disappear, but also intensifies, the fingers become naughty, the hand does not clench into a fist, the legs do not bend at the knees. The joints are gradually destroyed due to the onset of inflammation. It is important not to bring the matter to surgical intervention. If pain, swelling, redness of the skin appear in the joint area, you should contact a rheumatologist as soon as possible.

It is especially important to start treatment on time reactive arthritis . Such arthritis appears after suffering a sore throat, after the introduction of an intestinal or genital infection, as well as when an infection enters the joint during a surgical operation. With reactive arthritis, large joints on the legs are affected, the reception is asymmetrical.

Cartilage, ligaments and joints are destroyed and rheumatoid arthritis. The inflammatory process occurs, as a rule, due to a malfunction of the immune system - the so-called. autoimmune disease. With such a disease the immune system a person begins to actively protect the body from an imaginary enemy and attack its own cells inside the joint. Lack of treatment can lead to a wheelchair. You can name the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. The wrist, fingers suffer, moreover, they hurt simultaneously on both hands. In the morning, a person cannot clench his hand into a fist, his fingers have to knead for a long time. A person “paces” for a long time, getting rid of stiffness of movements.

Gout, or microcrystalline arthritis (salt deposits) caused by metabolic disorders, nutritional errors, kidney disease, stress. With gout, there is an increased level of uric acid in the blood. Sodium crystals begin to be deposited in the joints, the joint swells and gives severe, sometimes unbearable pain.

This cause is easily tracked by taking an x-ray or MRI.

Heart disease

In these cases, side effects occur in the region of the left shoulder blade and chest. You can try to drink Corvalol and artificially induce a cough - this should help.

Hello! I didn't write before, I just read. Now I have decided to write. We brought our daughter home 1.5 years ago, now she is 3.3 years old. Everything is fine with us, I love her very much, my girl. Our daughter has a twin sister. We saw my sister when we took our daughter away, she had cerebral palsy, she was lying, she could not even sit by herself. All these 1.5 years, from time to time my husband and I had a question about my sister, we thought that it would be nice to take her away so that the sisters would grow up together, but each time we came to the conclusion that it was hard ...

Hello. I also have a delayed child. When the doctor offered to hand over my son, I almost nailed her. The main thing is to love the child for who he is. And accept that he may not change. If you decide to do this, then you have the strength for it. God will definitely help. The eldest daughter will not grow up to be a cynical person, like today's youth. And she will be very grateful to you for saving her sister. I wish you much strength and patience.

Apply massage cream or olive oil to the skin first. Start with light strokes with your palms of the thighs but the entire surface from the knee to the hip joints and buttocks, then move on to more intense movements. With fingertips folded together, massage the skin of the thighs with light circular movements over all surfaces from the knee to the hip joints and buttocks. Squeeze your hand into a fist and use your knuckles with strong pressure to run over all surfaces of the skin of the thighs from the knee to the hip joints and along the buttocks, until there is a rush of blood and redness. Grab the skin of the inner thighs in the fold between the thumb and the rest of the fingers and smooth it with spiral movements from the knee to the hip joints, but not very much, because. bruising may occur. Vigorously pat your palms on your thighs and buttocks, alternating them with strokes. The skin must be red...

I have a similar motor (hyperactive) and paid centers, neuropathologists, RCCH, where we just haven’t been. Glycine we suck already like vitamins at intervals, valerianahel, phenibut, etc. But best of all, warm baths with a soothing extract (needles) help Badola have such, and we use it. Try there will definitely not be any harm, they are intended for babies, but we are also not very big at 3.5 yet. Only in the bath I pour much more than 2 spoons, one jar is enough for us 5-6 baths. But it is effective. Try it, good luck. If there are questions, unfortunately I won’t be able to answer in the near future, Dimul has his own at sea, the sun, a visa, by the way, is also very useful for such children.

Good luck to everyone, the easiest birth and healthy babies!
Thank you, you are golden!

When you are already on the chair itself, cough - the vaginal muscles relax. They taught me at the first examination in my life: they couldn’t shove some kind of tube for examination :) I coughed, and it passed :)
Here's another thing from me: if you have cold feet, then dress in such a way that you leave socks on your feet when you climb into a chair - it also helps. Well, try to breathe deeply there, close your eyes, focus on which other part of the body is higher (for example, carefully count your exhalations and inhalations, how the chest moves ... - you can try it now in the evening, as soon as the thought comes to mind, you calculate like this 5-7 breaths).
But don’t be afraid at all :) We keep the boom fists and everything will be fine!

I would like to know the opinion. I have been married for 7 years, my child is 1.5 years old. When I got married, a year after the wedding, my husband, in a drunken state, hit me (very hard).

He asked me very much not to make it public, but I had to tell my mother, after which this attack of aggression happened to him.

Seryozha, and more. Where did you read that I control myself at the very peak? Well, if you can say about a person flying from the 9th floor that he controls himself, perhaps he controls himself (I haven’t figured out what else to compare with :-)))).

And I have ALWAYS experienced an orgasm since I was 12 :-))) This is probably not normal either, right?
And I know for sure that I can experience it with any man :-)) And so it happens ... And long-term companionship annoys me .. Well, except if with a new partner, when for the first time. Well, when it is not clear how things can end.
And the feeling - I can not describe. I'm at a loss. It doesn't look like anything.

Hands can tell a lot about a person. We scratch the back of the head with our hand and rub our chin, we can keep our hands behind our backs or cross them on our chests. These are the most typical movements characteristic of any of us. We often do them unconsciously, but they say a lot about our personal qualities, character traits and desires. Here is an analysis of some of them.

Outstretched hand. In many countries, a typical form of greeting a familiar person is a handshake. In Western culture, this gesture is also used in negotiations, when an agreement is finally reached or a contract is signed. Nevertheless, Europeans tend to keep a distance in relations with each other, therefore, even shaking hands with another person, they keep a certain distance from him. In countries where it is not customary for male family members to hug or kiss, one can often see brothers or father and son greet each other with a handshake. The participation of hands in the ritual of greeting is a custom that comes from ancient times, since from time immemorial people have shown open palms as a sign that they are not armed, as well as showing friendly and honest intentions. The Romans, for example, put their hands on their chests, while the North American Indians raised their hands up. In our time, the Berbers, for example, when saying goodbye, give a hand, and then put it to their chest, as if saying that the departing person remains in their heart.
The handshake itself carries a lot of information. If it is strong in a person, then this indicates his firm intentions or strong character, while a sluggish or weak handshake indicates the opposite. Nevertheless, it should be borne in mind that people for whom the hands are a tool of labor - say, musicians or surgeons - can shake hands with you carefully and with caution. Therefore, one should never jump to conclusions.

Hands clasped behind the back. Many people walk with their hands behind their backs. This posture is very typical for politicians and in general for people holding responsible positions. If a person put his hands behind his back, intercepting one another, this indicates that he apparently feels some superiority over the others, and also that he is confident in himself, his position in life and his special position in society. This gesture expresses high confidence in the interlocutor: it is obvious that the body of a person with arms wound back is open and vulnerable, and therefore he feels safe and does not expect any attack. As a rule, in such a case, he stands or walks with his head up, slightly sticking out his chest. However, if one of the hands laid behind the back is held by the other hand not by the fingers, but by the wrist or even higher, closer to the elbow, then this is already a sign of frustration, it indicates a lack of control over the situation or an attempt to somehow cheer oneself up. . The stronger one hand squeezes the hand or elbow of the other hand, the higher the internal tension of a person and the greater the degree of his self-doubt; the more timid a person feels, the farther his hands are brought behind his back. But in a normal situation, he adopts such a pose when he stands or walks, while he often scratches his head, now and then straightens his tie or shirt collar. This is usually about a person's bad mood. By removing his hands from the field of view of his interlocutor, a person tries to hide the state of concern, stress, emotional excitement or frustration.

Arms crossed on chest. Folded arms usually indicate that the individual is worried about something or immersed in his own thoughts. Hands in this position can also be a kind of protective barrier that we unconsciously put up so that no one and nothing can penetrate our heart. Studies in the field of human behavior show that if a woman sits with her arms crossed over her chest, this means that the subject next to her is not at all attractive.

Hands down along the body. If, with arms lowered along the body, a standing or sitting person keeps his back straight, this indicates that he is calm and self-confident. However, when he not only has his hands down, but also his shoulders droop, this can be a sign of chagrin, boredom or depression.

Raised hands. This is a typical gesture of victorious athletes. However, depending on the circumstances, it may have other meanings. For example, the victim will raise his hands up as if to say "surrender!" if he is threatened with a gun or some other weapon. Raised up, but at the same time spread apart, the hands can also be interpreted as an open hug and perceived as a sign of greeting or disposition towards the interlocutor. A person waving his arms is better seen from a distance. So if we want to get someone's attention, ask someone for help, or just say hello, we'll also raise one or both hands.

Hands clasping each other. This gesture, made by the interlocutor during a conversation, can mean his hidden tension or rage. He is probably in a state of extreme irritation and is making an effort on himself so as not to explode. If at the same time a person is sitting, then perhaps he will also cross his legs under a chair.

Hands clenched into fists. This gesture expresses rage or threat. In such a situation, it is very appropriate to look closely to see if the interlocutor's knuckles have turned white. It is also important to pay attention to exactly where he holds his hands clenched into fists: if a person is sitting at the same time, then perhaps he will put them on the table; if it is, then, most likely, it will lower it low enough. According to the results of recent research, the height at which a person holds clenched hands has a direct relationship with the degree of his frustration: the higher the fist is, the more acute the dislike for the interlocutor.
Regarding clenched fists, the researchers came to other unexpected conclusions. Thus, for example, it was found that women very rarely resort to this gesture during a conversation, from which it follows that, at least as an unconscious action, it is more characteristic of men. In addition, it turned out that people who sit at business meetings with their hands clenched rarely make profitable deals, because their potential partners do not always want to do business with those who do not keep their palms open in sight: on a subconscious level, this is perceived as a lack of decency or dishonesty.

Hand wringing. The interpretation of this bodily sign is similar to that given to hands clenched into fists. Wringing hands usually indicates that a person is in a state of tension and anxiety, restlessly waiting for something and senses impending danger. Tapping fingers or knuckles on the table.
This gesture, as a rule, is also a sign of stress, frustration or anxiety. It can also indicate boredom or a suspicious attitude towards the words of the interlocutor. Often this gesture expresses the impatience of a person who wants to change the topic of conversation, or even end the conversation as soon as possible.

Hands folded as if in prayer. The person who uses this gesture is trying with all his might to convince his interlocutor of something, or wants to emphasize something very important in his speech.

Rub the palms of your hands. This gesture is an obvious sign of satisfaction with what has already happened or is about to happen. Here the intensity with which the action itself is performed is important, because the interpretation of the intentions of the person rubbing his hands depends on this. For example, when a sales agent really cares about the satisfaction of a client, in a conversation with him he will rub his hands quickly and vigorously; if he is just trying to “sweeten the pill”, then his movements will be slower.

Support your cheek or chin with your hand. Such a movement indicates that the interlocutor analyzes all the pros and cons and tries to formulate his own opinion on the issue under discussion. This is a classic pose in which the "Thinker" by the French sculptor Rodin sits.

Touch, rub, or stroke your nose. Such actions of a person are a clear sign of his self-doubt. He feels uncomfortable in his surroundings and, in addition, is set up negatively in relation to what is happening. If this gesture is made by a person saying something, it is likely that he is trying to deceive the interlocutor, although confirmation of the guess must be sought in other bodily signs. It may also happen that a person's nose is just itchy. As a rule, the one who tells a lie not only touches or rubs his nose, but also avoids making eye contact with the interlocutor, trying to distance himself from him or being afraid to be face to face with him.
If, in response to too energetic persuasion of a zealous salesman, a person rubs his nose, this most often means his skepticism about what he heard.

Rub your ear or touch your earlobe. A person performs such actions when the topic under discussion does not excite him too much and he either does not want to delve into it, or wants to forget what he heard. But sometimes, in such a delicate form, he hints that he has something to say and that he is just waiting for the right moment to join the conversation. It has been proved that in a minute a person can utter about seven hundred words, so that when people have to wait a long time for their turn, they often resort to this gesture, and sometimes even raise their hand, thus expressing a desire to insert their word.

Scratch various parts of the body. This can be a sign that the person is lying or hiding something, as well as doubt or self-doubt. Although, it is possible that he really itched somewhere!
Scratch the side of the neck with one or two fingers. If the speaker performs such actions, there can be no doubt that he is insincere or not too sure of the correctness of his words. This gesture is typical for a speaker who, in a public speech, delivers a speech written by someone else. In turn, if the listener scratches his neck, perhaps he suspects the other person of lying or has not yet formed a certain attitude towards what he heard. According to the results of some studies, in such situations, a person repeats this gesture on average five times.

Rub or lower your eyes and raise your eyebrows in disbelief. These are typical gestures that indicate insincerity and possible deception. The person lowers their eyes to avoid eye contact and not give themselves away. However, if your interlocutor simply rubs his eyes without looking away, then this, as a rule, means simply doubt.

Loosen shirt collar. This gesture indicates that the person is experiencing irritation and extreme frustration. It may also indicate that the speaker is telling a lie. Some people get a sort of itching sensation in the neck and face when they lie, and to get rid of this sensation, they make an attempt to loosen the contact with the clothes by pulling back the collar. When observing such gestures in someone, one should take into account the temperature in the room and other factors of the same kind, because very often a person loosens the collar of his shirt simply because he is hot.

Put your hand on your chest. Many people resort to this gesture when they feel distrust on the part of the interlocutor and the need to prove their own sincerity and decency. In such cases, they instinctively raise their hand to their heart to emphasize the sincerity of their words.

Point your index finger at a person or group of people. This is a command gesture, which is a manifestation of authoritarianism. According to the rules of good manners, it should not be used, except in cases where you need to indicate to the interlocutor the direction of movement and gaze. People quite often resort to this gesture in skirmishes, for example, in a traffic accident, when two drivers argue who is right and who is wrong. Fingers are also poked when scolding children. Perhaps that is why many of us feel out of place when someone points a finger in our direction: subconsciously we feel like a delinquent child, and for an adult this is quite humiliating.

Keep hands in pockets. This posture is more typical of men and often indicates a state of some nervousness in which the subject is located, as well as the fact that he needs to somehow discharge himself.

Stand on your hips. They also say about this pose - "put your hands on your hips." It reflects the state of a certain aggressiveness of a person and conveys his certain threat to others. It shows that a person is ready for action, especially in a situation in which he feels uncomfortable. It is common for women to stand akimbo, thus emphasizing the forms of their own body: in such a case, the pose becomes emphatically sensual.

Also, there are nuances that often elude the attention of an unprepared person, which nevertheless were identified by researchers as a result of observing many people. So, speaking about the future, a person usually gestures with his right hand; and if in some cases he uses his left hand, then his movements are directed to the right side. Apparently, people associate the future with the direction of movement to the right or forward. And vice versa, when people talk about the past, it's easy to see that they are pointing to the left or back. At the same time, if we are talking about what is happening at the moment, a person’s gestures are focused on what is right in front of him. The speed of gestures does not matter here, but it can tell a lot about the degree of arousal, satisfaction, or stiffness of a person during a conversation.

The above list is far from exhaustive. There are many other common gestures, but it is impossible to account for all hand movements and combinations with their participation.

Every time a person consciously or instinctively accompanies his words with some kind of gesture, he thereby conveys a parallel message, which sometimes coincides in meaning with what he expressed in words, and sometimes not. When we are faced with the need to understand what is happening, to make a judgment about someone, or to successfully solve a certain problem, the ability to interpret the meaning of the most common body movements becomes extremely important.
