Dislocated Finger?!


Question:

Dislocated Finger?

On my right hand, index finger, where the finger joins with the hand, I have a little bump there. It's small and it hurts when I touch it. I'm not sure what this is, any ideas?


Answers:

You may have a dislocation. Do you remember injuring it? My son just had a $12,000 surgery for a dislocated pinkey finger that he tore his tendons with. We let it go 3 weeks taping it to his other finger. We thought it was broke and that is what docs would have done but... an x-ray showed that it was dislocated and torn. Can you bend it at all? He couldn't. If you suspect the worse after ice and rest-see your doc. soon.
