What do you do if you think your finger is broken?!


Question:

What do you do if you think your finger is broken?

I slammed my finger in my car door 6 days ago and its still swollen and under the nail is bruised blood. It hurts if i bump it on something or squeeze it.


Answers:

go see an orthopedic doctor, some breaks may need to have surgery. If it doesnt hurt or look that bad, keep it in a splint for a week or so (or do a homemade splint with a popsicle stick and some medical tape), if it still hurts you, you need to see an ortho specialist.
