I'm really worried about my right hand. It doesn't seem to have as much strength as my left hand anymore. When I overwork it, my fingers start trembling pretty badly. It feels like all the strength in my fingers is just gone. What could be causing this?

It sounds like you're experiencing weakness and trembling in your right hand, which could be due to muscle fatigue, nerve issues, or even an underlying condition. I recommend seeing a doctor for a proper evaluation to rule out possible causes like nerve compression, carpal tunnel syndrome, or any muscular disorders. In the meantime, resting your hand and avoiding overexertion could help.
