Finger bones are phalanxes. There are three types: distal, middle, and proximal.
The distal phalanx is the bone at the tip of your finger after the last joint.
The middle phalanx is the middle bone between the two joints at the end of the finger.
Your proximal phalanx is the bone between your knuckle and the first joint of your finger. It is closest to the palm of your hand.
The fingers and thumb are called Phalanges both for the hands and feet.
