Dislocation – Finger -PIP left pinky finger

I Dislocated my left pinky finger and have a splint on it.
I need to play in the playoffs this weekend.
Is there some type of cast or something I could use for playing or should I just tape it to my finger next to it?
It is still somewhat swollen and painful to straighten out

    Dear Sports Doctors
    For the first 12 days the pinky was in a splint. Now it’s in a buddy-sock, and was feeling better, but for some reason, is becoming more painful and seems a bit more inflamed, although I don’t recall re-injuring it. I were the buddy sock almost 24/7. Pain is also running down the side of the hand.
    Should I consult the doctor right away about this development?
