Detailed explanation-1: -So a finger is distal to the wrist, which is distal to the elbow, which is distal to the shoulder. Or, similarly, the femur is proximal to the knee, which is proximal to the ankle, which is proximal to the toes.
Detailed explanation-2: -The distal phalanx of the finger is the distal or third of the three bones in each finger when counting from the hand to the tip of the finger. The distal phalanx has a joint just with the middle phalanx. On the tip of the phalanx is a bulbous tuft of bone that helps give the finger its rounded appearance.
