Pat, I just needed to keep a finger straight for typing and used something like this: (there are other sellers available!)
If you search online for finger splints, you'll get an idea of what's available and if they would do what you want them to. I also tried a plastic one, which wasn't that comfortable, but was cheap, so worth a shot.
At night, I wear hand splints to keep my fingers straight - my physio gave me those.

EvelynMW My fingers curl inwards making a tight fist so, without the braces, my (short enough) nails dig into my palms or into other fingers and my hands would be in a tight fist all night..
For me, they also give my lower arm muscles a good stretch too. xxDiagnosed 03/2007. Sporadic Definite ALS/MND Spinal (hand) Onset.
