Hello. I Have A Scaphoid Fracture. Following My Visit To

Hello. I have a scaphoid fracture. Following my visit to emergency, and X-ray a cast was put on. 4 days later at a follow up appointment with the ortho, the cast removed and X-ray taken again. The diagnosis was confirm however the recommendation was not to recast but instead wear a plastic brace. Same shape, but removeable, which is nice to have. Problem is, my index finger is now numb since yesterday. Only 2 days after I started wearing the brace. I've removed the brace, thinking maybe it's too tight - between the thumb and index finger for nearly an hour but I have not regained feeling in my index finger. What do you suggest?
