Its always bent like that. In order for it to go straight, I have to force it. I'm thinking maybe a muscle is pulling it like that, because its a little tight around that area. But this has been an issue since I was in 7th grade. Didn't think it would bother me, but since I play guitar, it really has become bothersome.

Any advice? If more pics are needed, I can take more at different angles.

Thanks.

I think it's more likely a 'birth defect' Tendon slighly to short.

It wasn't like this till I was in 7th grade.

The tendon stopped growing before you did? What do I look like, a doctor? You're the claw handed freak. :p

Probably should get it looked at! My dads pinky did that, and over the years it just got worse and worse and he eventually had to have surgery to straighten it out
