How do you deal with jammed fingers?!


Question: How do you deal with jammed fingers!?
While I was sparring yesterday I didn't close my thumb tight enough so it sticked out like a thumbs up and got jammed when it got hit by a roundhouse, yes it's really bad!. Any quick remedies u know because I only have 13 more days until I perform solo guitar in front of a very big audience!Www@Answer-Health@Com

HI,
Hum!.!.!.well!.!.no real "quick" so to speak advise!. I'd suggest soaking it in warm Epsom's salts!.!.nearly hot!.!.!.as warm as you can stand for 15-20 minutes!. Then I would soak it in ice water for as long as you can stand!.!.!.maybe 10 minutes or just really cool water!. You could also wrap it in ace bandage and apply and ice pack when your watching TV in the evening!.
With "Jams" it usually has to kind of "work itself out!." Also if you're not allergic Advil works really well and it's an anti-inflammatory!. (I take two of them) Or Motrin', ibuprofen!.!.!.!.it's all about the same but I swear by Advil!. Good luck on your next "jam" session!. (Sorry, bad joke I know!.!.hang in there dude!.
