Cut my finger bad and now I can’t move it

So almost a month ago I cut my pointing finger on a tin can ( lol don’t ask) it’s mostly healed now still a bit swollen see picture

it was cut quite deep and bad but they just put them sticker stitch pieces on it then took it off 5 days later but today I cannot bend it without pain in it the whole finger?? Any ideas why? It hasn’t even hurt since I took of the bandages but today it’s started hurting

I cut my finger pretty deep a year ago. I was trying to cut my car key open... also don't ask haha! It took longer to heal than I anticipated - but it got there in the end

Could be part of the healing process, but I would pop into a pharmacy or call your GP to be safe cos you don't want to find out later that there's more damage than you can see.
They can also advise you on things like the best painkillers to take.

I wasnt being sarcastic, if its hurting again then why dont you book a appointment and check if it could be severe or not

If I remember correctly... Yes? It also started to go a bit stiff - the skin was hardening as it was healing and it made my finger a little less agile lol
