the fingers are DISTAL to the wrist bones.

the fingers are DISTAL to the wrist bones.
Yes, the wrist is proximal to the fingers. Proximal means closer to the body's center or point of attachment, while distal means farther away. In this case, the wrist is closer to the body's center compared to the fingers.
The wrist is distal to the fingers in relation to the elbow.
The fingers are distal to the wrist. The wrist is proximal to the fingers. In anatomical position, it is possible to say the thumb is lateral to the wrist.

You can either 1: put two fingers on below you hand on to your wrist. 2: put two fingers on the side of your neck. 3: put your hand over your heart.
