What Causes Difficulty In Bending Index Finger?
Pointer finger will not bend on the right hand, i can bend it using my other hand to bend it down, i have no pain nor did I injure my hand. I have taped the pointer finger and the middle finger together so that I can do my computer work. My question is should I see a orthopedic Dr. or n Nurologst? Thank you, Susan
