Please don’t do unserious answers, or at least add a disclaimer before it and make sure the question has been answered seriously prior to that.
My question:
Is it normal using cutlery always hurts? Every single time I use knife, fork of spoon for anything else but scooping something soft, it hurts. It’s been like this my entire life. Are people really in pain every time they eat without anyone speaking of it???
Do you have issues grasping objects, particularly small ones? Buttoning pants/shirts, picking up change, turning doorknobs. Things like that?
Nope.
What specifically hurts: skin or muscles or something else?
How would you describe the pain: burning, itching, aching, etc?
How long does the pain last?
Deep tissue so I assume muscle. Very strong aching pain. It lasts as long as I use the cuttlery and then briefly lingers.
That sounds an awful lot like some form of arthritis. It’s not just an ailment for the elderly. Children can develop it too.
I have always had it (the pain). I have hypermobility though.
I’m not sure what you mean by hypermobility. Joint flexibility in general doesn’t preclude arthritis or muscular-skeletal issues.
Hypermobility is a musculoskeletal issue. The term is not used for the trained, controlled heightened mobility an athlete cultivates. A person with hypermobility has more vulnerable joints, and building and training musculature to limit their joints’ range of motion is a treatment for it.
Interesting. That’s something OP should definitely be made aware of I think.
