I have no choice but to stretch. I've always tightened up like a drum if I don't stretch. But if I overdo it then I'll get something that feels like all over pallor that night or the next day. It can be pretty bad and lead to a lot of pain.

I stretch my affected hand a lot and exercise it as much as I can tolerate.

It seems not only that we're each different but to a very real extent what's true for any of us on one day won't be the next.
