Broken pinkie finger
(2 discussions)
I broke my pinkie finger and the MD put me in a cast for 4 weeks. The cast is off but they gave me no PT and it is stiff and the pinkie finger still doesn’t bend right, is there anything I can do at home to help?

I got shot in the pinky finger about 3 months ago and the doctors put a cast on it but I was pulling the cast off from time to time. Now my finger is disfigures and bent out of shape. I can make all of my other fingers straight but not my pinky finger. Occasionally I feel aching when its cold or I bump it. What can I do to help it straighten back out or use for the pain.

I’m not a doctor, but I have injured several fingers through sports. Some exersises that a PT had me do were to put a ruberband arround my hand and go go out with my hand. Another one was to squeeze a ball (a squishy one). Also if you have like silly puddy or something like that you can roll it into a ball and then roll it into a worm.
