🧑‍⚕️Health Do You Have "Phone Pinky"?

[Zwielicht]

I had a bad habit of balancing my phone on my left pinky finger for years. As a result from this and also playing PC games where I had to hold the shift key down, my left pinky has some stiffness.

It's not terribly stiff, but it's noticeable and I find it annoying and slightly painful. I've been trying to correct this for several months now, although more recently, I learnt the term for this.

The advice in this video has helped me, so I'm sharing it here in case anyone else has this issue.

Didn't even know this was ever a thing

This is def something to be mindful of now because I know for sure I balance my phone with my pinky often and I guess many people do too... I have checked both hands and the pinky still closes together with the other fingers : D

I never thought that could cause that kind of damage

Well, now I know. Thanks for sharing : )

The only way to fix this is to switch to Samsung.

No, but I have ingrown toenail again, first time again since primary school . Very awkward and idk how this happened, maybe these new nail clippers eh. It's better already but takes a lot time.
