This is Rheumatoid arthritis. I would recommend you to show it to a doctor specially orthopaedic surgeon and get blood investigation like ESR,CRP and Ra factor. if there is increase in any of these test than you should need to take anti Rheumatoid medication like HCQ , Methotrxate or SAAZ, I would also suggest you to avoid any exposure to cold and use hot water fomentation.
