Chopin op.10 no.2.

[Jemmers]

I'm learning this piece (very slowly, i might add..)
However, right now, something hurts really bad. I'm hoping it's a muscle (thereby indicating training up weak fingers). But i'm afraid it's a tendon or some other thing that's not supposed to hurt.

Anyone else experienced any pains caused by contortion of the hand while attempting this piece?

 Not with this one, but with other pieces that require awkward stretches.  Be VERY careful not to overstrain your hand...it's much more difficult (and time-consuming) to recover from something like that than to simply take it easy and lay off for a couple of days in the first place to avoid injury.  You might also try soaking in warm water after torturing your right hand playing that piece.
