Since my right forefinger started to hurt, my practise has come to an involontary stop.
It was early June, and I had just made my first performance to an audience, when the troubles began. I had been playing since January and the piece I performed was Rondo Alla Turca.
The day after the performance I started working on perfecting the piece and continued to persue work on other pieces. Next morning I find that I'm unable to play because my fingers are too tired. The tiredness develops into a pain in the knuckle that connects my right forefinger to the hand. The pain worsens over the following days and is especially bad when the finger is rotated.
I quit practise for a couple of weeks and the pain fades away. Then, when I start again, the pain starts to return and now I feel similar pain in the knuckle of the right middle finger. Since then I have noticed pain in borh hands, wrists and elbows.
When I wake up after having slept on my hands (still lying upon them when waking up) they can be almost useless for up to an hour due to numbness and weakness.
All areas of pain are more or less isolated cases except for the right forefinger knuckle where pain keeps returning.
This has cept me off playing for more or less the entire summer, which is very unfortunate since playing the piano is by far my top interest. I don't think I deserve this either since I have been always aware of relaxation and alternation and seldom play for more than 20 minutes straight and always below two hours a day.
I have not seen a doctor yet, because I'm quite sure they won't/can't help me the slightest. My mother btw thinks the pain is (except for the first one) psychosomatic.
I really wan't to continue my practise and development but this scary finger-thing doesn't allow me to. Now I fear I won't be able to pursue learning this wonderful instrument.

Any reflections, suggestions or advice would be very welcome.
Respectfully
