HI

Greetings from Dr.Divakara.P
Thanks for posting your query.

It may be due to arthritis of the finger joints or infection of the whole fingers . You require a proper medical attention as this problem requires Antibiotics and certain tests like Complete blood count , Serum Uric Acid and X ray.

I advise you consult an Orthopedician and get treated fast , else it may spread and cause complications .

Hope you find this information useful.

Any clarification feel free to ask.

Regards.
