Well i Broke My Pinky Playing FootBall Had Surgery and its healed Crooked and it can only move in one direction and its weaker than before there isnt any possible way it can be used for Bass(since i play bass) will this make my playing suffer later down the road?
If a particular technique sounds the way you want, and you can do it without tensing up, then it is 'correct'. Sometimes you have to use the tip of your finger (pinky included) to mute the thicker string above it, or use the meat of your finger to mute the thinner strings below - it's all context specific. To put it simply, electric guitar has no 'supposed to's'. If it sounds right and doesn't hurt, it's right for you. Do whats comfortable for YOU.
Way less. For example bend at 12th fret full and its the same as 14th fret. So I dunno about 26 if you have enough finger strength to bend the string that far. Then again there's harmonics.
wow dude what kind of distortion was that on the random part

@dominicjmcmahon begginers don't usual use their pinky and if your looking up exercises for your pinky then your not a begginer

You know you can get probably 66 notes from 1 string with just basic bends. Half Bend, Full Bend, No Bend.
That's if you're using a 22 fret guitar.
