Answers:

I really want to help you!

I see several answers and none of them mention the most common reason for pain in the fingering hand;

Bad Technique.

If you hold your hand wrong it CAN hurt.

Pain is always a sign that something is wrong.

Seek a competent guitar teacher.

Have him show you the proper way to hold your instrument. If you do what a good teacher tells you to do, it should fix the problem. If not, you need to see an orthopedic doctor.
