How to get rid of a finger sprain

Unfortunately there's not much you can do to speed up the healing of a finger sprain, but there are some things you can do to try to decrease the pain. Most importantly, don't stop moving your finger or let it stiffen up.

Hi there.. thank you for the video.. ive also had a finger PIP joint injury around 7 years ago, where i hit my middle finger on a basketball.. but unfortunately, since then my finger PIP joint has become thickened and the swelling did never go away completely away.. i also do have some mild chronic instability at my joint.. but i do not have any pain and movement restrictions.. is it actually normal that finger joints can remain permanently thickened and swollen after a trauma?

I bent my finger otherway and there is no big swelling or somthing....2 weeks have passed and still the pinky finger hurts upon putting weight in a single direction should i get it checked?
