Stress to ligaments on the little finger

Detailed Answer:
Hi there.

Thanks for the query.

Are you doing any unaccustomed activity or stress to the fingers lounge riding bike, playing contact sports?

Do you do gymming?

Usually stress to the ligaments near the little finger could be stressed that can cause the pain.

You can take pain killer like Tablet Ibuprofen 400mg twice a day for 5 days after meals and Tablet Ranitidine 150mg twice a day for 5 days before meals. Apply ice or warm packs whichever gives relief. Avoid weight lifting for 15 days.

Get an Xray of the little finger and upload for my review.

I hope I have answered your query.

I will be available to answer your follow up queries.

Regards,

Dr. Aashish Raghu
