Question: Does this sound broken!?
Mmkay, I've never broken a bone before, so how can you tell if you've broken your finger!?
Mine's a bit swollen near the joint (First one after the knuckle), a little purple, and it hurts when I try to bend and straighten it!. The thing is, it's the bone that hurts!. Not the muscle or anything!.
Is it broken, or just sprained or something!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

With out x-rays it is impossible to tell !.
it may be just a deep bruise but again x-rays will give you answers !. If you feel it is broken a trip to your PCP is in order
for now you can splint and RICE the finger
Rest (do not use your hand or finger if possible )
Ice 30 on 30 off
Compression (will be given with the splint)

well if you are sure its the bone that hurts, it is probably broken, however, if you can bend it and you're not in excruciating pain than it is prob not broken but just sprained!. If it is very swollen and purple, chances are its broken!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
