Recently, my right hand has been feeling kind weird and heavy. Sometimes, it gets achy and it feels stiff, almost like I'm developing arthritis in it. (Or at least that's what I imagine it would feel like). I've gotten this feeling in my legs in the past. Would love any feedback.

pain in my hands used to be pretty bad, it started on my left pinky and ring finger, then moved to palm and wrist. my right hand started getting it too. i was needing to wear wrist splints almost 24/7 for a bit and sometimes i just put my hands in ice water to kill the pain. it took 6 months or so to not be so painful. this was several years ago when i was diagnosed and now my hands just have a general stiffness and ache from time to time. working out with dumbbells seemed to strengthen my hands and helped quite a bit.

It’s not quite the same but when I over exert myself, I start to experience tremors in my left hand. My hand will also feel stiff. Maybe what you’re feeling is in response to over exertion. As was mentioned, rest helps my hand symptoms.
My left hand-yes, right hand-not even there yet.
