[|Human|] Hello Doctor Rynne,The area on my right hand below my thumb near the area where my palm meets my wrist has been a dull ache for at least a week but just about ten minutes ago I have started getting sharp pains. I m wondering if the achiness and now the pains are from not drinking enough water each day? I m a 54 year old postmenapausal woman, if that helps to know.
