Do you think I broke my pinky?!

Question: Do you think I broke my pinky?

The other day when I was at the gym, i was playing basketball with my mom and sister. I went to shoot but the ball was too short, hit the rim, and I thought it would bounce back up. Well it came closer than I though and I tried to catch it, but my pinky got caught and went all the way back. I started laughing at myself cause when I'm in pain I laugh? Lol anyway, its been a couple days and hasn't gotten any better. It is all swelled and all blue and black. I cannot bend it at all in the part of the pinky where it bend at( not sure what it's called). I'm going to the doctor tomorrow if it doesn't get any better. Do you think it's broken or what???? Thanks!

Answers:

yes, i am pretty sure it is fractured, but pinky fingers are one of the best things to fracture because you dont use them much. good luck at the doctors!

experience

without x-ray vision i can't tell if it is broken. enjoy the visit to the doc and let him look. broken or bruised u will get a finger splint to wear and no gym for a while. either way if it is broken or bruised it will take 6 weeks to heal unless u bump it again be careful

if its blue and black, YES! i definately think you hurt it and probably broke it. but saying its blue and black sounds serious. im glad your going to the doctor

i think it could be bruised to the bone
it happened once with my thumb
give it a few days
