Most of the patients who found instant relief is by having NSAIDS such as ibuprofen,advil, motrin etc..this is applicable for serious cases and as for mild cases you can do so with rest,Repetitive activties such as gripping is not allowed as it will further aggravate the problem. Soaking in warm water also helps and also massage althou it will just releive the pain but not the inflammation.

Happy new year to everyone!!!!!
