The Ring Finger

That is the name of  this fourth finger and perhapse everybody thinks that is the only function and importance of this finger.
   But this is not all ; the truth is , it is a very important accompanying finger for support of function of the hand especially the right hand. This I am realizing now for the past week or so more than before. We take everything for granted under normal conditions when all is OK but only realize Allah SWT's wisdom and His ne'mah, boon, when a defect arises such as I became aware of hearing ne'ma when I lost it.
  Rheumatoid arthritis affects particularly Inter-phalangeal joints of fingers and about a month or so back the proximal interphalangeal joint of my right finger started becoming stiff with minimal swelling. Now if I bend it or flex it completely I have trouble in extending it back and have to force it. This stiffness has caused major dysfunction in my right grip. Now holding tasbeeh in right hand and rolling it is a very simple thing and I can do it OK but the right ring foniger gives my problem. Holding clothes to wear especially wearing socks again this finger stiffness makes it difficult for me
It looks as though this stiffness is now here to stay
