My ring finger is on my mind presently. It's turned into a trigger finger from riding a stiff clutch motorcycle for a week nine months ago. If bent too close to my palm it doesn't come back without help. It's interfering with my Spiderman web shooter operation. Must have it looked at.

Having experienced mallet finger in the past, I might consider wearing a splint for a couple weeks to let it heal

That's interesting. My wife's cooking has done it to her ring finger as well. She spoke to a hand orthopedist, but he said that she'd be out of action for weeks if they did the procedute that shaves it, so they just gave her a shot of roids to help it calm down. They can do that up to three times before they need to do the shaving procedure. Good luck with it, Spidey ;-)
