23. Why do my fingers get wrinkly when I swim? “It may seem as if your skin is absorbing extra water during a soak in the pool or bathtub, but that's not the case. Researchers have known since the 1930s that people with nerve damage in their fingers don't prune up in the same way, meaning it's not just happening through osmosis, according to Scientific American . Instead, it's caused by blood vessels below the skin that constrict, which seems to have the evolutionary advantage of making it easier for us to pick up wet objects. For a 2013 study published in Biology Letters, scientists found that subjects with wrinkled fingers were faster at picking up submerged marbles (but didn't do any better at picking up dry objects) than those with unwrinkled fingers” (Carothers & Cutolo, 2020).
