Stiffness in pen hand

Ok, whenever I am playing osu I get this weird feeling in my fingers where its like stiff but it isn't stiff if you know what I mean. For example, when you don't move your fingers for a little bit and you go to move them again and they feel a little stiff, well it's like that but probably like 100 times worse. Does this happen to you guys and do you know how to prevent it?

It's beginning to annoy me because it happens mid-song and I usually end up failing because I drop the pen in "pain" or just the feeling of it, the second I drop the pen the weird feeling goes away. :cry:

P.S: I don't know if this is the correct section :P

Yes I know exactly what you're talking about. I also get this feeling but it doesn't come with pain my hand just feels stiff and uncomfortable. I believe that you experience this because your muscles become tense when you play a song. What works for me is I try to stay loose and relaxed with my pen grip and it works for the most part. If this helps you then great! But if it doesn't fix your problem you may want to consider some research as weird pains are never good. :)

Don't tense up while playing. Don't grip the pen overly hard. Try to relax your hand and see if that helps your case.

Don't death grip your pen, try and relax.
