The 2nd through 5th digits on both hands have 3 bones (proximal, middle and distal phalanges) and 3 joints, including the metacarpophalangeal, proximal and distal interphalangeal joints. The 1st digit, however, only has 2 bones and 2 joints.

What toe are you referring to? In your first digit (big toe) there is only one joint. In digits 2-5 (the rest of your toes) you have two joints. Unless you are also counting your metatarsal phallengeal joints too, if you are +1 joint to each.

How many interphalangeal joints are in the hand?

Simply put, there are nine (9) interphalangeal joints in the hand. The hand consists of 5 digits numbered 1-5 from thumb to "pinkie". Digit 1 (thumb) has two phalanges one called the proximal phalanx and another called the distal phalanx. So, there is one interphalangeal joint between the proximal and distal phalanges of the thumb. Digits 2-5 each has three phalanges a proximal phalanx, a middle phalanx and a distal phalanx. So, each digit has 2 interphalangeal joints.

How many bones do we have in our fingers?

The fingers (and toes) in anatomy are called digits. The visible parts are made up of three bones called phalanges (aside from the thumbs). The Distal Phalanx is the one in the tip of the finger, the Middle Phalanx is the one in the middle of the finger and the Proximal Phalanx is in the base of the finger. There is also another bone in each digit but is hidden the body of the Hand. These are called the Metacarpal bones and are long thin bones. These are not part of the digits.To answer this directly: the number of bones in each finger is three except the thumb which has two. The same with the toes. The large toe has two and the others have three.
