Find a good Chiropractor instead.
I ain't kiddin'.
Chiropractor saved George Benson, now he endorses it, too.
MANY musicians could derive benefit from the thing, no matter the instrument choice.
And -- start drinking 8oz of water every hour you are awake.
Yeah, you visit the bathroom more, but stadying hydrated cures a lot of these things right up, gout, carpal, "trigger finger" and the like.
Prayer helps, too.
Wish you the best,
