Any advice?

Sorry you are having trouble with your fingers! I encourage you to try these warm up stretches.

And then these trill drills. Go slowly. You don't have to do them as quickly as I'm doing them. Just enough to get your fingers moving!

Also, if you are not yet, then I encourage you to start working on Guitar Fundamentals 1!

Lisa course will give you a lot of beginner basics that you can use to start improving your finger strength & dexterity in the context of learning & playing simple chords & melodies.

Hope this helps! Please ask more if necessary & best of success!
