Stiffness and pain in knuckles

Question

Asked for Female, 22 Years

A month ago I started having pretty bad stiffness and pain in my middle finger knuckle. It wasn't every day but it would at least hurt very badly after first waking up. Now it hurts everyday if I try bending it all the way. This problem is now in both hands and usually only bad in the morning. When I wake up my knuckles hurt and are stiff my hands are tingling and I can not make a fist. It is excruciating to move or bend my fingers at all. It goes away after 30 minutes or an hour. Sometimrs they do that during the day at times. I've also noticed a loss in strength in my left hand, the one that my middle finger pain started with. I am a 22 year old female.
