They really ache right now and seem a little stiff. Plus I can't make a strong fist either.
I've noticed that they hurt a tiny bit after my commute. I work at at computer all day, and I have the gel hand and wrists rests also to ease the discomfort. I feel I have to shake my hands alot and massage my wrists every 5 mintues.
I did ride a pretty rocky trail last night. Probably the the bumpiest of the season so far. Lots of downhill so I was on the brakes nearly the whole ride down. I rode it plenty of times last year not with this much discomfort. So maybe it's the first bumpy ride of the season pain and my hands aren't as strong yet? Or could I be developing something else?
What can I do to prevent this? Shake my hands out before and after a ride? I wear padded gloves and I ride with my wrists aligned with my arms (not cocked wrists).
