Middle finger locks in place, mild pain

2021-07-16 07:15:54
My mother's right middle finger locks in 90 degree angle when working and she has to straighten it with left hand. There is mild pain when doing so. Happens 3-4 times a day for past 6 months. She also cannot squeeze things without it happening, or with mild pain. What could it be?
