    I had surgery and regret it. My broken pinky was the break where it was slightly lower than my other pinky. Sure I might have lost the use of pinky. But now I cannot bend my pinky index or middle finger. The inflammation is almost unbearable.

    Hi Doctor,
    Thanks for the video!
    I had surgery on a broken finger. What tips can you share on post surgery stage? Thank you again

    I think it's broken. The tip where it bends is uneven. There's a substantial hard lump on one side. I think it got jammed really bad when a lever snapped back into place today. It had a spring loaded effect even though it didn't have a spring. Was wearing gloves and I think they saved my finger from being gashed open. Sigh! Tonight I'll tape it or something until I can get to the nearest VA facility.

    Question. I broke my pinky finger 6 months ago. It broke at the first joint towards my palm. Apparently a 2.6mm piece broke and impacted into the finger, then I also had a crack down the finger.
    The problem is I cant close it when making a fist. I try stretching it constantly but I cant seem to get the finger to close when making a fist. Thoughts on what I should do?

    Hi thank you for your video dr. Can I ask you why it would hurt a lot more in buddy tape - it’s not too tight and done good. I had an injury fell on it and it was swollen and bruised and couldn’t move. I taped it and 3 days later swelling bruising down and you could see my second knuckle was to the side and I accidentally hit it and it went back in so was dislocated at the pip joint. I can move a little more but still can’t move it by a curtain point. So I think I broke and dislocated it. Buddy tape hurts so much more than it’s out. Is this because it’s broken? It’s now stiff, numbness at the tip and a bit colder then the rest

    I recently broke my finger at the middle knuckle. Bin in a splint for almost 3 weeks and it’s still really stiff. So much that I can’t bend it yet. When should I be able to bend it close to normal again?
