I somehow managed to have a very crooked or curved index finger for no reason at all. Couple of months ago it was straight like my right index finger currently, but now the tip of my finger bends at the middle finger, which causes my index finger to tuck in very tightly when I make a fist & it hurts really badly. I also cant point that well due to the finger smacking the side of my middle finger if i want to put the finger next to it in almost a fist like formation. The more I try to use it, the more it hurts. I never severely injured or broke it ever in my life. How did this hsppen & why is it only just this finger. It sounds like arthritis but I'm only 19 & arthritis attacks all fingers. So what the actual heck happened to my left index finger. I'm gonna have to go to a doctor am I!
