Suggest Treatment For Pain And Burning Sensation In The Finger
Fell going UP stairs, landed on hands. Ripped pinky finger nail up to a 90 degree angle instant pain and burning in that finger. Swelling in pinky, ring and third fingers , also can t bend pinky finger without pain, wondering if it s broken and what to do about it.
I don't think the finger is broken but the pain sensation is normal anyway we can't say if it is broken or not without a x-ray. Take Ibuprofen or Acetaminophen for pain relief. Use cold compresses. Keep the limb elevated.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
