Hansen's disease: If you're referring to leprosy, then it really depends on the type of treatment you received - there are combinations of meds used each with their own side effect. I'm not sure that the curve of your index fingers would be a side effect of any of them. But because this disease is so rare in the u.S, i suggest talking with someone who specializes in infectious diseases or travel medicine.

Clairfy Hansen's?: Do you mean hansen's disease? Can you clarify? Curved fingers can result form many things. Contracture, arthritis, born that way, scarring.
