#idk what this means or if i do this but ig i'll just hold my phone with my pinky stuck out from now on??
Good question, also no that won’t help.
shitty MS Paint 3 minutes doodle, nto entirely accurate: When you have your pinky hooked on the “bottom” edge of the phone for the extra security so it doesn’t slide out of your hand that easily, you’re wreaking damage on your hand, since the pinky is extremely askew from it’s resting position. You might have noticed that when you hold your phone like that for long time it begins to hurt, like when you are gripping a pen too tightly for example.
Green lines - the fingers are going their natural way. Red line - the pinky is way off, that’s bad.
Me: Oh, good thing I never-
Me, looking down at hand: By talos this can't be happening
oh thats why my hadns have started to always be in pain ok
this post is five years old and has been repeatedly debunked, why is this going around again
A TikTok trend is is prompting people to show off 'dents' in their pinky they believe are caused by their phone. But experts say 'phone pink
The post doesn't say anything about "changing the shape of your pinky". It says that holding your hand in this position for long periods of time can aggravate one of the three nerves that control the main motor functions of your hand. You are debunking something that this post never mentioned.
I don't use phones all that much, but I put similar stress on my pinky by the way I use a computer mouse, and I promise you that it absolutely does cause me hand and wrist problems.
I kept getting weird wrist pain I couldn't figure out. I happened to start using a magnetic grip on my phone, and it went away because I stopped supporting it with my pinky. I use my phone to read for several hours minimum most days, and so I've switched to using phone stands as much as possible and being very careful to hold my pinky with my other fingers, and the pain hasn't come back at all.
