The ends of the fingers and toes are protected from mechanical injury by the presence of nails, which provide a hard barrier against impacts and abrasions. Additionally, the skin at the tips of fingers and toes is thicker and more sensitive, enhancing tactile feedback and helping to detect potential injuries. The underlying bone structure also adds support and resilience to withstand pressure.
