Answers:

You should go with a finger splint instead. http://www.walgreens.com/search/results.jsp?Ntt=finger+splint&x=0&y=0 The circulation is probably being cut off by the tightly wrapped bandage, causing the finger to blacken. Also you should make sure the finger is set back in place or else she'll have a crooked finger.



go to hospital A.S.A.P



go to the doctor instead of trying to fix it yourself might work.
