Stiff, sore fingers

Remember that the muscles for the powerful movements of the fingers are located in the forearm. You can see how the muscles in the forearm move when the fingers are moved. The flexor muscles are on the underside of the arm and the extensor muscles are on the top. It is never wrong to massage the forearm if there is pain in the area from the wrist to the outermost joints of the fingers. The massage will relieve the pressure on the joints and tendon sheaths.
