Re: Hand Cramps

Hand cramps could indicate the onset of some form of arthritis or possibly repetitive motion injury and should probably not be taken lightly. As such, I would recommend that you seek advice on this from a medical professional rather than this community of bass players.
   
  I'm also in my 50's, but well before that, I underwent CTR (Carpal Tunnel Release) on both hands, and I'm here to tell you that it's serious stuff.

I would greatly appreciate any advice, tips or suggestions for easing
(or, even eliminating) hand cramps and, particularly, in my left hand.
I just turned 50, and am wondering if that has an effect. :-) Any
lotions or heat/cold therapy ideas are welcomed.

Thanks,

kl
