What Causes Stiffness In Left Index Finger While Typing?

My left index finger will sometimes stiffen and go rigid--sometimes while I m doing no activity but sometimes while I m typing. (I have a desk job that involves a significant amount of keyboarding.) Occasionally, I ll see and feel what appears to be a pulsating vein in the v area between the index finger and thumb.
