did i break my finger?!


Question: Did i break my finger?
it is really big and has blue in the crease it really hurts to bend my fingers so much that i cry it it broken or sprang ed?

Answers:

you jammed it good. if it was broken you would not be able to bend it at the spot in question. You probably just jammed it. Take it easy for a few days and it will start to loosen and go away if it is a jammed joint. If not, then yeah you broke it. Tape a popsicle stick to either side to prevent bending and flexing until you feel better.



See your health care provider as soon as possible (orthopedic surgeon or hand specialist), for consultation. Signs of a fractured finger:

Swelling.
Tenderness.
Inability to move it completely.
Deformity.

You might think a broken finger is a minor injury, but without proper treatment it can cause major problems. The bones in a normal hand line up precisely, letting you perform many specialized functions like grasping a pen or manipulating small objects in your palm. When you fracture a finger bone, it can put your whole hand out of alignment. Without treatment, your broken finger might stay stiff and painful. See a doctor.
I hope this helps you. And good luck.



your finger is alright. its not broken. if you are really sure its broken go to the doctor.
