Is My Finger Broken?

I'm in unbearable pain, swelling, I have DIY splint on it, (Can't move with splint off) NO history of broken bones, hurt it setting a volleyball, the pains only getting worse HELP!
I suggest you go get it checked with he GP this sounds quite serious😳

YES! Go as fast as you can because we don't want there to be more complications!

PM me if you need any more help and send me an update on how you're doing :smile:

Yeah I think so, you said that you're in unbearable pain and that it's swelling. It's either broken or sprained but I'm going to say that it's broken... Is it at a weird angle?

the knuckle is a tad off ( were swelling is) but my finger ( at the tip has always been a bit sideways)
I’d find the local minor injuries and go there to get it looked at. A&E really don’t need burdening with broken fingers. If the minor injuries clinic think it’s bad enough they’ll send you there. If not they’ll strap it and give you advice.

Oh I see well let's see what the ER has to say, fingers crossed that it's nothing too bad!
