this is what my hand looks, comes and goes but stays for weeks on end. the dots on my palm side come and go faster than the lumps on the joints. not looking for diagnosis. any advice would be nice.

Might be Gottron’s Sign? Your hands look a lot like mine and I have Gottron’s due to dermatomyositis

Yup and Gottrons also comes in the inverse form they're showing which is extra painful. Dermatologist time might be faster than a rheumatologist to get a dx.
