What is a ‘smartphone pinky’ and how it affects your hands
Many smartphone users experience discomfort in their little finger. This occurs when the pinky supports the device's weight for extended periods. This habit can lead to temporary dents and stiffness. Long-term strain might affect tendons and nerves. Simple adjustments like using both hands and taking breaks can prevent these issues. Awareness of hand posture is key to avoiding discomfort.
