There is generally no concept of alternative remedies for the treatment of swollen, painful, and deformed finger joints. Improvement can be achieved through methods such as hot compresses, manual massage, medication, orthotic fixation, surgical treatment, and other methods, which can play a role in conditioning.

Methods of Treatment:

1. Hot Compresses: The use of a warm towel for hot compresses can promote local blood circulation and help with the absorption and resolution of swelling.

2. Manual Massage: Professional manual massage can relieve muscle spasms and improve the resolution of swelling and pain.

3. Medication: If the symptoms are severe and the pain and swelling are prominent, medication such as Ibuprofen Sustained-Release Capsules, Paracetamol Sustained-Release Tablets, and Celecoxib Capsules can be prescribed by a doctor to provide analgesic and antipyretic effects.

4. Orthotic Fixation: Orthotics can be worn to correct joint deformities and need to be worn consistently for long-term effectiveness.

5. Surgical Treatment: If conservative treatment fails to improve the condition and the joint deformity is severe, surgical correction may be necessary, such as tendon repair or tendon transplantation.

During the treatment process, it is important to keep warm, avoid exposure to cold, minimize hand activities, and take plenty of rest.
