Pain in Pinky Finger around upper joint
Follow topic:

Woke up this morning and noticed sharp pain in the upper joint of my pinky finger when crimping or open hand position holds. It is not tender to the touch and no visible swelling, so im guessing it is not a pulley issue. Yesterday I climbed in the gym and definitely did some dynamic moves on the Moon Board, but did not notice any pain during or after my session. It does not hurt when twisting the finger either so may not be a collateral ligament. Perhaps DIP joint? |

topside or palm side? |
