The joints in our fingers are called metacarpophalangeal joints (MCP joints) and interphalangeal joints (PIP and DIP joints). These joints allow our fingers to bend, straighten, and move in various directions.
The joints between finger bones are condyloid (hinge) joints called interphalangeal joints. The thumb has just one, so it needs no other description. The other fingers have two, called the proximal interphalangeal joint and the distal interphalangeal joint. There are sometimes abbreviated "PIP" and "DIP."
