    I can tell you unequivocally that there is nothing I can do about the pain of pressing the strings of that folk guitar, and I was also swelling on the tips of my fingers. It hurts like a heartache. Wait until you get calluses, and that's it. In the meantime, you can lower the tone of the piano to make the strings softer.

    Pay attention to a few points. The key is to be sure to use the tips of your fingers, not the belly of your fingers; That is, to "stand", not "lie on your stomach". Cut your nails short so that the flesh on the side of the nail is pressed against the string and the nail doesn't top the board underneath.

    When the left hand is pressed from the first string to the sixth string, the left arm should be sent forward. A thumb is used as a fulcrum to make a lever-like movement. The goal is to give the fingers plenty of room to keep them still upright.

    No matter how hard it is, you have to persevere, and you think that's how you learned guitar anyway. If the pain is too much to bear, take a break, practice again, take your time, and don't rush. I wish you success in learning guitar!

    Does the ring finger hurt more than the others?

    Is it too often used? It doesn't matter.

    LS is right, but it's also possible that your string spacing is too high and it's hard to press.

    If the pain is really bad, you should rest for a while, 45 minutes a day is enough for beginners, and you have to get used to it slowly. You can try to put your finger in the hot water and soak it for a while, I used to use this method to relieve the pain.

    It should be that the hands are not comfortable at first.

    When I even have my hands, my hands will be bruised, and they will bleed!

    It's okay, don't worry, it's impossible to become a big fat man in one bite!

    It's like this at the beginning...

    I started pouring, and I turned it up.

    I really feel that I can't stand it and take a break, practicing the piano is not good at once, and I can't rush it.

    After a period of practice, your fingers will be calloused, and you will get better.

    That's right.. If you grind your hands, it may also have something to do with your strings, and if the strings are rusty, you can also grind your hands.

    Practicing a musical instrument is important in persistence.

    I wish you a speedy success!

    Me too, that's because your hands are too tender, practice more, and wait for the calluses to come out, and I'm also working hard.

    Like the previous two seniors said, it will hurt at the beginning, and I will add a few points based on my own experience for the landlord's reference:

    First of all, it is necessary to have a correct posture, sit on a stool 2 3, have a straight back, legs are shoulder-width apart, and hang down your arms naturally (you really can't naturally shake your hands and put them down), these landlord's guitar teachers should have taught, so I won't talk about it in detail.

    The second is the finger placement, which is also a more important point, the landlord can try to press his hand on the string first, and then slowly put his thumb behind to find a feeling (that's how I found the feeling at the time).

    Then what you want to live is that the strings should be calibrated to the tone, maybe it will be easier to play, and the good guitar will play the feeling of the piano if you calibrate the tone (our teacher can also play the sound quality of the piano with an ordinary piano, after all, it is highly skilled, tut) to slowly experience the elasticity of the strings, if the landlord strings have been used for a long time, it is recommended to change a pair, otherwise it will affect the feel.

    Another point that our teacher told us to experience slowly is that "one play and one relax", it doesn't matter if you play slowly, the important thing is to find the feel. It doesn't matter if you don't experience it for a while.

    If the above is no problem, the most important point is to practice more, climbing lattice practice is very useful, if the landlord is a novice, it is recommended not to rush to play difficult tunes, first follow the teacher's steps and then practice climbing lattice practice, I believe there will be a harvest soon.

    You should hold your fingers down on the fret (that is, the little silver bar on the guitar) a little higher, and just let the strings touch the fret to make a sound, without pressing so tightly, which can be experienced by slowing down while practicing.

    Persistence is victory, every time I progress a little bit, I will feel that the string is not good to press or ** and always play badly, maybe it is the owner of the building to improve (after a period of time, it will be good ( There must be a road before the car to the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge=w=

But! Now I practice every day! Let's do it together!

    You've seen blisters on your fingers, and there's a layer of bubbles in the blisters

    Is it? That's the dao I back.

    It's false to say that it doesn't hurt. You have to practice, too.

    After practicing this time, it is not easy for you to think about bubbles. For your hands will grow to the right seed. It's not that kind of thick seed yet, but it feels good anyway.

    You have to practice gritting your teeth. This means you're going to be struggling. Don't give up.

    I also feel pain, but the teacher told me that it is normal and that it will not hurt at a certain time. We must persevere, don't have the idea of giving up because of pain, so that we can practice the guitar well and achieve something. It's hard to get started.

    1. You practice folk guitar, this is normal, everyone who practices folk guitar will have this paragraph.

    2. If you feel that you can't stand it, you can switch to classical guitar, because classical guitar uses nylon strings, which is better to press a little without harm.

    You practice folk songs, the steel strings do grind your hands, and you play them all at the beginning.

    It's really painful to be like this. My own experience is to take a break for a few days, don't touch the guitar, and wait until my hand doesn't hurt before playing. When I started again this time, it didn't hurt so much.

    And there will be a hard crust like calluses on the fingertips, which will relieve the pain. That's probably it, maybe everyone's way is different, you can try. Finally, I wish you all the best in learning the piano!

    For beginners, short-term hand pain and calluses are unavoidable; But mastering the method when practicing can also reduce the pain in the fingers when novices play the guitar.

    First of all, we need to face it up to our minds, don't give up easily because it hurts, don't be afraid, and don't rush it. When you practice to a certain level, master the technique, position, and strength of your finger pressing the strings, and it won't hurt. Be mentally prepared to better deal with the problems in the practice process.

    Second, the fingers of the left hand should be pressed vertically, and the joint closest to the fingernail should protrude. You don't need to press the strings too hard, you don't need to press them to death, in fact, it takes very little force, as long as the pitch is fine. You can keep trying when you practice, and you can find that strength.

    Also, press the string as close to the fretboard post as possible. Don't use brute force to compare the guitar with a guitar, as it can easily break through the skin of your fingers.

    Finally, you need to arrange the amount of guitar practice reasonably. Many beginner guitar friends are very enthusiastic and eager to learn all the guitar skills in a month. Just started to get into the guitar and practiced 5 to 6 hours a day.

    This is actually a very unscientific method of practice. When you have not mastered enough practice experience and reserved enough theoretical guidance, excessive practice is easy to leave wrong habits. Freezing three feet, not a day's cold.

    It is best for beginners to make a good practice plan under the guidance of the teacher and practice step by step. Not only does it progress quickly, but it also allows the fingers to slowly adapt to the intensity of the exercise, and the pain and calluses of the fingers are naturally and effectively controlled.

    Extended Material: Excessive practice can easily hurt your fingers.

    Adding to the question of practicing guitar cocoons, in fact, according to the above principles, beginners should pay a little attention, and the calluses on their hands will not be very thick, of course, it must be unavoidable. Cocoons are not thicker the better, which is a misconception of many guitar enthusiasts. It is believed that the thick cocoon can prevent hand pain and is conducive to guitar learning.

    In fact, the thinner the cocoon, the more sensitive the fingers are, and the more you can control the strength and fineness of the guitar operation. Wang Leehom's fingers mentioned at the beginning of the article, in fact, we can also see that his Weibo said that he has been practicing guitar frantically recently, which has caused more calluses. If we go to some players who are very good at guitars, we find that they have almost no calluses on their fingers.

    This is why some people don't play for a few days, and some people play for decades, in fact, this is normal, at first it hurts and then comes out of the cocoon, and then it is a dip in water and peels, especially after washing the hair, you will find that the hands are not thin, it doesn't matter, it's good to re-do it, as long as you insist on at least two hours of systematic practice every day, it will naturally not hurt for a long time, and the cocoon on your hands is gone, but the skin has become thicker, so it doesn't hurt anymore, the most important thing is to see if you really like it and whether you can hold on!! Hope it helps!

    The pain is inevitable, it starts with redness and swelling, then blisters, this stage is the most painful, but after this stage, the tips of the fingers will be calloused, and you won't be in pain when you play the guitar. But if you don't practice for a long time, your calluses will fade, and you will repeat this painful process when you play, so practicing diligently is the king. After about 1 month, the calluses will be relatively firm

    Also, if your fingers really hurt, take a break to relax your fingers, or soak them in warm water. But there is one thing, you should never wear any finger sleeves, band-aids and other finger-wrapping things on your fingers, beginners can't find the strings in the first place, and bringing that stuff will only make your practice worse and worse.

    There is no way to do it with hand pain, and I also had a pain in the tips of my fingers at first, and it was blistering, and I gritted my teeth and insisted on playing, and it was good to wait for the cocoon to grow. Although my cocoon has grown, what is particularly painful now is that I practice those big horizontal presses, which make my index knuckle sore and sore, and now when I touch the string, it looks like a broken finger It hurts several times more than when I press the chord, and I recommend that you pay attention to the big horizontal press in the future!!

    Playing the guitar fingers will definitely hurt, because you have to press the string hard with your left hand to make a sound, so just wait until your fingers are calloused, and it won't hurt in the future, if it's the right hand, maybe you can use pike instead.

    Also, beginners generally recommend using nylon strings first, and then change to steel wire strings when the cocoon grows.

    It is recommended to strengthen massage, warm compresses to promote peripheral blood circulation, or take drugs to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis**. In addition, it is also necessary to pay proper attention to rest, and you can also use gauze to protect your fingers. If the pain is more pronounced, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory analgesics, such as diclofenac sodium, ibuprofen, etc., or voltarin ointment can be applied topically.

    If the symptoms are not effectively relieved through these**, or even worsen the condition, it is recommended to go to the orthopedic department of the hospital for further treatment.
