What is wrong beside my finger?
Today, I was playing basketball with a friend and I jammed my index finger backwards. At the time, it only just burned really badly but after a while, it started swelling. I put ice on it for a while and after I just waited. I can bend adjectives the joints on my finger with a short time discomfort but it feels really stiff and awkward. What is wrong with my finger? And what should I do around it? When will it heal? THANK YOU! : )
Note:
I don't think I broke it so I don't ruminate I require a splint or a doctor's advice.
Answer: sprain , ligament injury , consultation with a doctor is call for ,.
If it is not OK by now do not continue home treatment , but show a doctor.
