Hand pain...help!

Hi Everyone,

REcently, my husband is having a lots of pain on his hand from fingures to elbow and he cannot able to do any thing major. Blood test report came negative for R-artheritis. Our doctor gave him Celebrax for pain, but he has to stop it cause bad side effects. Every nite he rubs bengay or similiar cream to get some relief. Looks like something is there and he is not happy at all as pain is unbearable. Pain is basically from wrist to thumb going towards elbow. Needs some help if gets any cure.
