It is advisable to put hot packs on your wrist and finger. Also, you need to do wrist and fingers exercises which will help to relieve pain and stiffness. Basically aim of your treatment plan would be reducing symptoms and slowing the disease progression.
If you wanna know exactly what exercise you must do then you must consult physiotherapist (online consultation is also fine).

I am not sure about this. Because deformities occur your r.a duration, surface of the joint cartilage, ligaments, nature of muscles strengths. Etc. However these are all under deep inspection and tests are done by orthopedician / physiotherapist / any physician which are expert and very experienced. But whatever it may be please be cautious. Take precautions. Attent physical therapy treatment sessions for better lifestyle.
