Hello Michal,

Go back to your doctor or better still, go to an orthopedic doctor. Some
of the orthopedic docs speicalize in hands. Have the doctor order some
outpatient occupational therapy. The therapists will have knowledge of a
varity of braces and splints
that will allow you to play. With all due respect, your doctor is not
very knowledgable on this.
