Your hands should not be in pain from playing. If they are, it's most likely a sign of excess tension somewhere in your body (possibly in a completely different area). I would STRONGLY suggest working with a professional teacher (one well versed in Alexander Technique would be great) to be sure that you are not introducing stress into your playing through poor posture/hand position/whatever. Pain from playing can develop into big problems like carpal tunnel or repetitive stress injuries that could potentially prevent you from being able to play down the road, or end with arthritis or other major problems. Playing through the pain is never a good idea.
