Try finding some foam rubber "toys" that you can squeeze every day. Don't squeeze hard, but do keep the fingers moving. Also, there are some medicines, like Mobic (Meloxicam-generic) which are available. I am walking and quilting because I can take Meloxicam. Otherwise, I'd be in a wheelchair and unable to do anything. Not everyone can tolerate an NSAID, but maybe you can. Good luck.
