I broke my pinky and have a basketball game today.?!


Question:

I broke my pinky and have a basketball game today.?

I need to play today and my pinky is broken. Should I wrap the pinky alone or wrap it with my ring finger ? I have a splint but its too bulky to play with.


Answers:

You may want to check it with your coach. As others have given you the information- tape it with the finger next to the broken one. If it is painful apply ice and maybe use an otc pain medication. Not a medication that would affect your playing or other activites. I am not a doctor and cannot really diagnose your injury. I would go to a doctor for examination and treatment. If it is broken, you more than likely have to have a finger splint or tape together. Enen if you try the treatments prescribed by we the readers, it is indeed to have a doctor to exam it. You may have internal damage.
