Common Questions and Answers about Index finger and pinky

finger

Avatar f tn I had my pins taken out Monday from my right index finger this week, and today is Friday. I still have minimal movement and much stiffness. My finger is stuck in the position it was as when the pins were in, and I am still unable to make a fist. Also my top part of my finger is pointed more towards my pinky finger than sitting in the normal position. Is this how it it will stay, or will this get better when my knuckle swelling decreases?
Avatar n tn My fingers actually slope down -- index finger is the longest, followed by middle finger and ring finger, with my pinky being the shortest. I only have knuckles on my thumb and index finger, which explains why the other three fingers on each hand are shorter. I always figured that my hands were going to be too big for my body (I'm pretty petite), and maybe this was my body's way of correcting that.
Avatar m tn I took a puck off of my right index finger and didn't really notice any immediate pain. Over the next couple days I noticed that I couldn't form a fist because my finger was very swollen and hurt to bend that far. Upon further observation I noticed that my first finger knuckle had become very wide, but the rest of my finger remained regular size. It is also very sensitive to touch.
Avatar n tn s falling asleep but not my entire hand, it would be selectively And randomly my fingers. For exp my index and middle finger would feel numb and slightly painfully, thwn 15 minutes later my pinky And middle then my thumb and ring finger theny ringer and pinky. This would also be accompanied by small sharp numb but semi painful spots around my elbow.
1625195 tn?1332178662 There is little to no numbness. The ring finger is the same as well. But my middle finger, index finger and thumb are definitely numb and slightly swollen. My index finger, though, is the only finger experiencing some pain along with the numbness and swelling. Things to note: I did not bang my elbow on anything.
Avatar m tn Around 2 months ago, I noticed a sort of raised lump/bump on my right index finger (middle knuckle area).. At first I thought it may have been a spot or blister or something, but when i tried to burst it with a pin, it was just skin.. raised bump/lump with no fluids, just skin... Anyway, I went to the docs, he said it was probably a wart.. He wouldnt freeze it off for me so I got some over the counter stuff..
Avatar m tn Ever now and then, some days more than others I get a sharp burring sensation in my left pinky, or index finger that comes and goes quickly but is painful enough to make me stop what I am doing and if I am holding something I would either let go or drop it. I'm thinking arthritis but am not sure.
Avatar m tn I have had it on my left pinky, my left ring finger, and last night to my right middele finger. Does anyone know what is causing this?
Avatar f tn For the past couple of weeks I have woken up to my right pinky and ring finger is locked up. It takes me a while to get it moving. Now I have noticed it locks up during the day and now I looked at my pinky and the joint is larger and bent in looking! That's why I googled it and found this web site. It is interesting that you have thyroid issues. They test mine and it is within the limits but on the high side just under the limits. My heart flutters and jumps around.
Avatar n tn It feels like my thumb and ring finger are getting better but my index and middle fingers are still just as bad.
Avatar m tn A few weeks later, I noticed I could feel a nerve fairly easy between my thumb and index finger. Here recently I've had a lot of headaches, muscle twitching and aching pain in my left arm/hand. I've noticed that my pinky finger can move but seems to move like I was double jointed or something. I seem to have a stiff neck every now and then but I feel like I've always had that. When I hold a cup or a glass of something in my left hand I shake really bad.
Avatar f tn Lately i have had numbness in my thumb, index finger, midfle finger, ring finger and pinky finger as well as pain in this fingers. My wrist,forearm, and elbow gets pain in it. I also get pain when i grip something too long. I also have a hard time laying in bed typing. Is this tendons, ligaments, nerve,inflammation?
Avatar f tn I have been having extreme burning sensation down my right pinky finger and middle knuckle and wrist an terrible aching pain to go along with it in my right hand wrist and fore arm .. What is this? It is terrible!
Avatar n tn If I try to make a fist, my ring finger will not bend to the palm, my pinky finger does not bend. Pinky finger isn't injured. The middle finger (not injured either) will bend but the joint closest to the nail will not curl under. Thumb and Index are fine. I was wondering if there is an injury to one finger can it affect the other fingers beside it?
Avatar n tn It started with my index finger having spasms, and then moved to in between my middle finger and pointer finger knuckle. It now is deblilitating my pinkie and ring finger and causing some minor pain in the outside part of my wrist. With my hand straight out I cannot I cannot put my pinkie or ring finger together and I cannot get my ring finger together with my middle finger. Any thoughts? I have attached a pic of how close I can get my fingers together. I am 32 and relatively healthy.
Avatar f tn The last month my finger pain has really gotten bad and has now started in on my right hand too - and that started with a bout of SHARP pain in the pinky finger joint but is now in the middle, ring, pinky on that hand too - still worse on the left. what gives?
Avatar n tn It started off with just twitching in my right thumb/index finger, now over the last few weeks the twitching has spread throughout my body and in my face as well at times. I've recently gotten a fever as well although I don't feel nauseous, I feel weak and achey along with these twitches I've become pretty concerned at this point. I've also noticed some head pressure when I do certain activities that require labor. I'm just wondering what this could be?
Avatar f tn I am left handed and after going on vacation, I came home and my right pinky and the side of my ring finger closest to my pinky is numb and sometimes tingles. I have itching in the palm of my hand also occasionally. Also tightness and stretching in these fingers. I have a lump on my pinky finger on the knuckle that the doctors have said is just a nodule. I've had the lump for about 10 years. My Insurance doesn't begin til January. Any advise from anyone.
Avatar f tn Often, thyroid problems can cause carpal tunnel syndrome, which causes pain, burning and numbness in the thumb and fingers. With CTS, the thumb, index, and middle fingers are affected. Also, the ring finger can be affected all around, but often it's just the side of the ring finger closest to the middle finger that is affected. The pinky is not affected at all. I agree with Barb that more background information would be very helpful.
Avatar m tn I herniated L6/S1 10 years ago and suffer from spondylyosis for over 30 years. A year ago my right index finger was at a right angle and could not be lifted. My finger is now almost straight unless I exercise it (typing). I did an EMG last year and was told I had reinnervation deficiencies in both arms, which were worse on the right side. My neurology exam was normal. Until two weeks ago except for my index finger I was symptom free.
1493284 tn?1294875712 I have the paresthesia in my entire left arm that lasted 5 days. Occasionally, I felt some of the numbing between my index and middle finger on the sides. Almost feels arthritic, yet like you have the flu in one extremity but without a fever :D Fun $hit isn't it?
Avatar m tn I worked hard for a couple months doing some exercises I found online trying not to fail my classes and make money. I regained much of my mobility however my index finger (the finger with the knuckle I broke) won't bend down all the way its now been 6 months since the break. this has made hitting the bag and future self defense a bit more tricky when throwing a punch my index finger hits first and makes it bend causing extreme pain which would be impractical in a self defense scenario.
Avatar n tn i have the same thing on my hand right under my pinky finger, exact same discription. and i have no idea what it is, but it itches and burns so badly takes every thing i got not to scratch at it. whats worse is the skin around it starting to peal and make my skin thin and sensitve, and now my skin is cracking and it hurts really bad. what is this and how do you treat it, nothing is working that i have tryed.
Avatar m tn I noticed over the weekend I have what looks like a few brown spots on my fingers. I wouldn't call it a rash necessarily because it's not raised or itchy, it literally looks like smeared chocolate that hadn't been fully washed off. I have three spots on my index finger and one dot on my pinky. Could this be std related? I had oral sex almost 2 weeks ago with other male. Since I haven't had any symptoms but my throat feeling sore in the mornings and recently these brown spots.
Avatar n tn If the numbness you describe is occurring in the pinky and ring finger, a similar type of condition you may be experiencing is The numbness/tingling in the pinky finger your husband is experiencing is ulnar nerve entrapment. As the ulnar nerve travels down the arm, there are a few areas in particular that it can become entrapped. One common place for this to happen is at the elbow and when this occurs, a "cubital tunnel syndrome" may result. As the nerve travels towards the hand.
Avatar m tn Im having symptoms similar to yours but after I run I get a weird feeling in my arm and through my pinky and ring finger. do you have this? I also get the twitches when i extend my hand out and put my wrist up kinda like I telling some to stop. but when resting it doesnt shake unless its after I play in a soccer game then its like my whole hand. I was curious if you went to the dr and what he said.
Avatar f tn Well in basketball I got pushed, fell on my right hand (hand I write with) and I cannot put any pressure nor weight on it. There is NO way I can bend it. Along with that, my knuckle under my pinky is swollen and won't more either. My pinky is veryyy swollen. I can also see a done randomly sticking out on my knuckle. Did I brake my knuckle? What should I do!!!?
