14. Try typing with a finger splint on
Fri Apr 11, 2025, 01:51 PM

I inured the upper (extensor) tendons on middle finger on my right hand causing the top of my finger to bend forward at 45 degree angle. The first splint helped to correct the finger so it was bent at a 25 degree angle and my new splint should take it to 15 degrees. My main problem is I do touch typing and that middle finger with the splint causes me to in inadvertently mistype. I have to try to remember to use my index finger whenever I want to hit a key with my middle finger. It takes about twice as long to type because I have to correct the mistakes caused by my middle finger.
