Hello sir. It seems to be writer's cramp, however offline examination or a well guided video is necessary for proper diagnosis.
1. Using a pen with free flow like gel pen and with wide grip ( thick pens ) will be beneficial.
2. You can shift to typing , if possible. Using the other hand for writing is also suggested, but it is difficult for most people.
Regards
Next Steps
Please consult a neurologist for further management. There are some medicines and also botox inj available.

Writters cramp will respond to anxiolytics and betablocker. How ever either learn to write from left hand or alternatively go for botox injection for long lasting solution
