A member asked:
Right hand fingers (not thumb) will close in a straight, not clenched position, down onto my palm. have to pull them open. no pain, just odd sensation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hand closing: Sounds like "trigger fingers" or tenosynovitis. You should follow up with your primary care physician. You may then be referred to a hand specialist. It depends how bad your hand is. Hand physical therapy might be enough. It does not sound urgent but I would follow up soon.
