Finally went to the doc. "as you suspected, it is tendinitis in the extensor tendons on two outer fingers and to a lesser extent on the thumb." Treatment is rest (as much as possible), ice, anti-inflammatories, and OT, which I start on Thursday. So, not unexpected but still rather annoying. She doesn't expect me to stop playing entirely, at least not yet -- if things don't start getting better within a few weeks, I may have to; and she strongly suggests that I take the summer off to let things heal as completely as possible.
