Compression gloves for rheumatoid arthritis - recommendations please?

With menopause, came achey joints! Particularly bad in my fingers and thumbs - swelling, redness, sore and disfigured. Compression feels good and there are lots of gloves on the market but I always seek a recommendation, so I'm looking for fingerless gloves that cover all the joints just leaving the fingernails clear. Nothing too bulky material wise, and without unnecessary seams. Hoping someone can help me make the right choice! Thank you.

I have these ones and would recommend them. I get arthritis in my finger joints and they are warm but non bulky.

I have the same ones. They help with osteoarthritis but not rheumatoid (I have both).

I got mine from occupational therapy in the rheumatology department.

@BlackboardMonitorVimes is showing the ones I have. They work really well for my osteoarthritis. I have 7 pairs as I wear them in work, in bed, everywhere but when I go to the loo. Every one is a different brand and they all work about the same and look the same.
