You'll have to have your hand therapist get this to see what use this could be to you.. I'm sure your doctor subscribes to Mechatronics

Mechatronic Design and Characterization of the Index Finger Module of a Hand Exoskeleton for Post-Stroke Rehabilitation
This paper presents HANDEXOS, a novel wearable multiphalanges device for
post-stroke rehabilitation. It was designed in order to allow for a
functional and safe interaction with the user's hand by means of an
anthropomorphic kinematics and the minimization of the human/exoskeleton
rotational axes misalignment. This paper describes the mechatronic
design of the exoskeleton's index finger module, simulation, modeling,
and development of the actuation unit and sensory system. Experimental
results on the validation of the dynamic model and experimental
characterization of the index finger module with healthy subjects are
reported, showing promising results that encourage further clinical
trials
