G_Y_IT_42 asked:


I am working on a project and need help with this question. I played football and coached the game for many years and in my experience, I would guess some 70 to 80 percent of players suffer from some degree of jammed fingers. I have also heard that these hand and finger injuries can lead to arthritis in the joints later on in life; do know anything about that? Please help.
