My jammed finger still hurts after a year?!
Question: My jammed finger still hurts after a year.?
I jammed my middle finger on my left hand about a year ago and it never did heal and is still bent down and I cant straighten it. My doctor put a spint on it and told me to wear it for 2 weeks and I did that, never healing the finger to full position. The past few days its been throbing with pain every now and then and when I try and touch it it hurts, and is even a little red. Im a little concerned about this. Last year the X-ray showed no break, but shouldn't it be healed and back in postion with out it bending down or hurting.? What should I do....or what should my mom do since she'll be the one driving if I have to go back to the doctor or for an x-ray.Health Question & Answer
Answers:
First things first. Go see a doctor because if it is red and painful like you say, your finger could be infected. A year later, your finger should be healed and it should not be painful to bend it. It could still injured if your finger did not grow back right. Maybe you should get an MRI to get a more detailed idea of what is going on with your finger. I really do hope you figure out what is going on. Get better soon!Health Question & Answer
