A member asked:
Please tell me what is causing these muscle spasms in my finger?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unusual: There are not really muscles that spasm in the finger. Tightness or pain in the finger can come from cramping in the hands or forearms from overuse, electrolyte imbalance or neurological problems. Coldness in the fingers can feel like a cramp, with difficulty of movement, pain, and color changes from constriction of blood vessels. Perhaps you should be examined and discuss your concerns.
