Yes, I Have A Condition Which Is Affecting One Finger
Yes, I have a condition which is affecting one finger on each hand. I am a female, age 66.
On the left hand, the middle finger gets stuck in a folded position while the other fingers straighten. The same thing is happening on my right hand (to a lesser degree) with the ring finger. It's most noticeable when I wake up in the middle of the night and attempt to move my hands. It seems to lessen in severity as the day progresses and I am moving my hands around more. While the movement in better in the daytime, I still have pain and stiffness in the fingers and in the palm of both hands.
Thank you.
