Last night my hand starting hurting extremely bad. I couldnt open it or close it. I had no grip. It hurt in the fingers, palm, and wrist. It was slightly swollen but not much. This morning it was better but still stiff and sore but I can use it. It hurts in the wrist all the way yup about 4 inches from the palm. Can you tell me what it could be.
