Suggest Treatment For Broken Fingers

Hi my name is Chelsea. I broke my finger 3 weeks ago. The dr that saw me the day it happened said I would need surgery to have pins put in it. I finally got to my appointment 3 weeks later, today, and the dr said I ve waited too long and I can t have surgery. I want my finger to be fixed where it looks straight. Is there anything I can do? Please help me.

Hello,

It may be due to injury.

For that you may require X Ray after orthopedician consultation.

You may require splint application over the fingers.

For pain you can take tablet acetaminophen.

Restrict your movements.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
