Broke it yesterday evening playing ball. Worth going to the hospital? Currently I've got it bandaged up straight to my next finger as they would normally, but it might need putting back into place (i.e. my question is - is this broken enough to need fiddling around with or just healing?).

honestly?
hospital, at least you will make sure whether it's something serious or not. Does it hurt?

I am no doctor but from doing martial arts for 10 years and playing as a goalkeeper for 7 I broke my fair share of fingers, some with hospital trips, others not. I would say generally just strap it up but because of the abnormal bend I could get yourself down to A+E.

You've broken a part of your body. If it was me, I'd go. Plus, they can confirm things and fix it etc

You've got nothing to lose by going, what's the dilemma here?

Generally with fingers unless they look wonky like his you can just strap them to the next one and they heal just fine, it's all the hospital will do so saves you 3 hours waiting in A+E.

Yeah was just feeling lazy to be honest (nearest hospital is 40 minutes away and waiting times of 1 hour +. I'm here now waiting though. Thanks guys

If it hurts a lot go, if it's not bothering you too much leave it A+E ques are ridiculous

Ouuuuuch that looks painful!!

Luckily it turns out it's not broken! Surprising looking at it, I know. The colour is just about gone. Still pretty swollen but less so.
