2 days ago I accidentally bent my little finger right back. Will it heal by itse!
Question: 2 days ago I accidentally bent my little finger right back!. Will it heal by itself!?
My little finger is swollen and feels numb, though I can still bend it!. The side of my ring finger is also numb!. The side and top of my hand is numb too!. Obviously I damaged a nerve and a ligament when I had my accident, but I dont think I damaged the bone or any tendons!. Should I bother my family doctor with this!? I dont want to waste my doctor's time if the numbness will go away by itself eventually!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hi
I bent all my fingers right back!. and my fingers were double the size!. i could not bend or move it!. and it was all red!. (it looked quite funny as my fingers were really huge )
I was chasing my lil sister, and i tripped on the side pavement curbe!.
I was screaming in agony!.
I went to a&e but we had to wait in reception for ages!. then me and my mum gave up!. i was quite annoyed with nhs!. they didnt seem to think it was important
i let it heal by itself!. and it did heal!. it took about week and half!.
just as long as you dont use the injured fingers much!. also get it masaged by your mum or someone!. massage gently!.
my hand/fingers are ok now!. no permanent damage!.
so it would def heal!. i was quite surprised how quick it healed!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

if its swollen for more then 24 hours- eg swollen and not going down or getting worse, see a doctor soon, you could have damaged a muscle!.
But if it is getting easoer to move and the swelling is going down, it should clear up, I did this a long while ago, my figer did swell but only slightly, it sisnt hurt after about 3 or 4 days!. But I play the violin so have probably got stronger muscles in my finger then you so it would have likely healed a tad faster!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I bet that hurt!
Best to tape it securely to the next finger (not too tightly) for a couple of days AFTER you put a cold compress on it for an hour!. It'll be sore for a while so wear a finger protection for a week!.
Be more careful,eh!
Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
