Acupuncture doesn't fix anything.  It supports the body to heal itself.  It should be able to support hands to heal.
Yes, I have used acupuncture to help resolve hand pain for my patients. However, it does depend on the condition & cause. Check with your primary physician to see if alternative medicine would be a good option for your condition - Live Happy, Michael

Yes
Of course there's no guarantee for any form of medicine, but acupuncture can work on most kinds of chronic pain.
A lot is going to depend on why you're experiencing hand pain. If you haven't done so already, having some x-rays taken and getting evaluated by your primary care provider should be your first step. If the imaging and evaluation doesn't identify the problem or the problem is identified but conventional medicine doesn't offer much in terms of resolving the issue then, yes, acupuncture can often provide relief.
