A member asked:
What to do if my finger won't bend past a certain point?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The most common reason why a finger will not bend like it is supposed to is from a previous injury causing the tissue to be stiff and tight or preventing the tendons from sliding correctly to allow movement of the joint. Seeing a hand specialist will clarify your problem and allow a treatment plan to take place.
