    I woke up yesterday and my left ring finger was stuck in a 45 degree angle. I had NO power over it. All my other fingers worked fine. After about five minutes, I got control of it again. So I ask you guys, does this ever happen to you?.

    Well, this sorta happened to me, because I sleep with one hand under my pillow.. my finger was touching my palm all night, and my other fingers were all straight. When I woke up my hand was asleep and my finger was stiff.

    I guess if your hand was like mine all night then this would happen.. other than that idk.

    It got locked in place. It happens with fingers and toes.

    I've had that happen to my toes, but not my fingers. I don't know why it happens, though. huh.gif

    how often does that happen? if it was in a 45 degree, you must have slept on it bent. i'd wake up with weak fingers but never have "no power" over it. it does happen to my neck though, when i sleep all twisted.

    (First post.. sorry if I'm disobeying any forum rules)

    i think your finger might just be having pins and needles... or the blood flow is completely gone and so you can't move it...

    @Mushyrulez, welcome to UPSB!

    yeah, that's happened to me before, if I am holding something small down with a good amount of force and one finger it can get locked for a few seconds. yeah, it's normal

    Thanks MrGuy!

    as he said nate, it's perfectly normal (although i never had it happen with my fingers before). However i recommend shaking your hands a lot if that ever happens again.

    ... a few days ago, while I was sleeping, I suddenly woke up in the middle of the night and was like erh... 30% awoke. And I found my fingers unmovable. Yes, I really can't moved it. Not a single bit and yea, I got frightened a lil' and went back to sleep and the next morning it's fine again. (It's not a dream, I'm sure)

    Maybe Sleep Paralysis?
