Sclerodactyly

Sclerodactyly is a hardening of the skin of the hand that causes the fingers to curl inward and take on a claw-like shape. It is brought on by a condition called systemic scleroderma, or systemic sclerosis. Systemic scleroderma often affects the hands, causing a tightening or hardening of the skin.
