Ouchy hands - any tips/tricks?

I'm 36 weeks & have the inevitable puffy hands & feet. It's come in later than last time so I should be grateful, but it's really bothering me. I've got wrist splints to stop nerve pain, but my right hand especially is feeling tight & less flexible.

Any advice to relieve the feeling?

Dandelion tea apparently reduces swelling. I've been putting my hands in ice, mmm, heaven.

Get your OH to massage them and drink lots of water. I found that really helps although does not take the discomfort away permanently unfortunately.
