Sprained or Broken Finger?

Swollen fingers don't heal, so the first step to getting that sprained/broken finger back to working order is to address trapped fluid/congestion. An old Voodoo Band, a pair of scissors, and 30 x 1 minute wraps gets you an A...and a functioning finger.⁠

Sooo.. my friends knee came down on my pinky and her knee rolled over it.. very painful but I delt with it anyways. Soon my finger popped and it didn’t hurt anymore. 2 weeks later, it started bending but it was only until 3 weeks I went to go get an X-ray which was yesterday.. I found out I broke my finger and may potentially need surgery to fix it.. it’s called something but I forgot it starts with a j and then fracture. I broke 2 bones the growth plate and another. My finger is slightly crooked now and very swollen. I’m gonna go check if I need surgery in 10 days so I’ll update y’all then..!

Yea thank you for a real answer. Quick straight to the point. I watched a whole video that basically told me i have these things called fingers and they dont have muscles and if you jam them it can cause swelling and pulling them makes it worse. Then she said thanks for watching and subscribe to her channel.

Well that really pissed off my jammed finger. If bad to worse is the goal. Nailed it.

I suffered an “open tuff fracture” of my middle finger last Sunday, dropped a dumbbell on it and it looked like a crushed grape. Doctors said it will take 6 weeks to heal, I will surely try this method to keep swelling down.

What should i do if it the pain is on the bottom of my finger

[dustinrenoth]

Would this be something I could do for my broken tibia? 4 weeks postop right now. I am doing arom and some aarom in flexion to get some extra degrees right now.

Would wrapping the wrist also help with finger swelling? I have mallet finger

I've badly sprained 3 off my fingers but they're too swollen and bruised to do this with atm maybe I'll try again once the swelling goes down because they're all curled over atm

[gitanjalideka]

my father broke my right hand thumb and area was all swollen n blue but now the swelling has gone but I can't move or bend my thumb in any way.

I just got on a workout journey than while I was playing basketball I got hit with a ball and I went to the doctor and I broke it ☹️

[hoshiarsingh]

tissues that are swollen dont heal. does it mean i should give up?

[Nico_Smiley]

What about for a fractured toe. Can’t bend it, it has been 2 months now :(

[christiangomez]

soo I was hit by a basketball and my finger bent backward

[xDEADxINSIDEx]

I wish there is a way you can check out my finger. I punched a tree. The doctor said it’s not broke. It’s just very sprained or jammed. Now my whole knuckle is swollen for almost 2 1/2 months. And still swollen and hurts when I’ve bend it someways. I have no insurance and I’m not gonna go in that for my stupidity of punching a tree.

[light-wp]

RN my finger is jammed and hurts, its swelling and I think I broke it.

[mystjrboxing]

What if it’s on the lower part of your finger

[Theabc]

I've thought about it while being high, but the next day i found it too stupid to work.
Cool stuff. But i cannot afford to destroy my voodoo band.
