Do you mean ... why are my fingers feeling tight?

Sounds like they could be swollen which could be a number of things and probably best to get an opinion from your Dr.

Maybe water retention I would get it checked out, if you have a camera phone take pics. x

Hi there, yes a good idea to take a picture, but please pop along to the GP for a check up, if something is not right, it is a good idea to get checked. Mary Fx

Assuming your fingers are tight -- is this on one or both hands? If one, there could be restricted blood or lymph flow in that arm.

If both, then it is more likely you have edema. Can you dimple your leg? Explanation -- push your index finger into your shin. Does the dimple impression made by your finger remain after you withdraw your finger? If a pronounced dimple sticks around for more then a second or so, then it's time to call the doctor.

Not what you're looking for?
