yesterday I was doing online crossword puzzle and all of a sudden my finger locked-in place for 5 mins . Is that normal?

It can happen especially if you have arthritis in your fingers. You may need to take periodic breaks from typing.

My shoulder locks up on me every now and then. It scared me the first time. Now I rub pain cream on it to help ease the pain and loosen it.

Take care and blessings.

Try to move it much as possible and massageing it will help circulation. Feel better!
