Are there muscles in human fingers?

Have you ever wondered if there are any muscles in human fingers? Well, fingers are constructed of ligaments, tendons and three phalanges.

Ligaments are strong supportive tissue connecting bone to bone, tendons are an attachment tissue from muscle to bone and the three  phalanges are actually bones.

So, there are no muscles in the human fingers! Fingers move by the pull of forearm muscles on the tendons.
