Arthritis?

Ok im not sure but i think i might have arthritis or something like it....My wrists,mainly my right one, is killing me lately! Its like this sharp pain that lasts forever unless i massage it or just deal with it. Its not so bad sometimes but other times it hurts very bad. Also when i wake up in the morning i find that both of my hands are asleep and are swollen. Im not sure whats going so if anyone knows anything about this please let me know! Thanks

Sounds a lot like carpel tunnel.  Arthritis symptoms include pain that Doesn't go away when massaged (often gets worse for me, actually), red, swollen joints, loss of flexibility, and wanting to close up your hands rather than hold them open.  I've never had numbness.

You could possibly be sleeping on your arm wrong, or messed up a nerve, if you are used to writing or typing it could be arthritis or carpal tunnel....good luck!

Do you drink a lot of OJ, or eat stuff with lots of acid (tomato's) because when I drink lots OJ, my fingers get really sore like arthritis.
