Stiff Hands After Golf: Causes, Relief & When to See a Doctor

Question
I overplayed at a golf range a week ago with addition to gripping the club to hard and started waking up with stiff fingers on both hands. It subsides throughout the day but there's still a little pain during some movement and I also feel it when I massage it. I have tried Aleve PM at night time but that doesn't seem to work at all. Should I go to my doctor to get some prescription strength anti-inflammatory meds? How long do you think this would last? I recently just got the bionic relief grip gloves hoping it'll help. Do you think I should refrain from playing for another week?
