Well you should stop when you feel the pain, and rest...Is it a sharp pain , or one produced when your muscles get tired ?

You must warm up your right hand before practicing as much as you warm up your left - around 10 minutes of slow paced simple exercises, hand stretching and hand exercises. It will be fine, just take it slowly and don't practice when you didn't properly warm up. It may not seem like a big deal now but in 10 years maybe (god forbit!) you won't be able to play if you don't watch out, so be careful - it is always the best solution.

Definitely warm up properly. I have seen many people already that only worry about warming up the left hand, but of course also the right hand has to be warmed up, it is doing as much work. And definitely take a break when you are in pain, this "no pain no gain" thing is nonsense, if you continue to play and try to force yourself through this problem you might end up having serious problems.

are you very relaxed when you play or is your right hand very stiff?

Well try relaxing the right hand, and of course in time you will build up the endurance...

If you are like me, you may be doing too much activities with your hands during the day.
I work on computer almost all day, and for fun I play guitar and play computer games... So it is about the accumulated stress on the hand, and not only the guitar playing. I had pain in the past in the right hand. My solution was to use the mouse with left hand while working (and right hand when playing PC games). A friend of mine suggested that and I am really grateful to him! This post has been edited by Gus: Jun 9 2008, 05:04 PM -------------------- my "Thank you GMC!" video
