I warmly Welcome you!


Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic.


No this isn't Calcium built up. It is actually due to repeated soft tissue injury.

Apply Voltaren Gel on the areas of strain. Apply heat pad to the knuckles. It will hel soothe the sprain. Take Ibuprofen to relieve this inflammation of the knuckles. It will heal up over time unless you hurt it again.


This was all symptomatic treatment. You need to get cured completely. For that I suggest you to attend Anger Management Classes. It will help assist you manage and treat your anger.


Until you get the classes, if you need to hit things with your hand, do it on a soft pillow or mattress.



Hope it helps. If you need further assistance, contact me anytime.

Regards!
