A member asked:
I hurt my finger almost 3 months ago, the x-ray showed it wasn't broken. i used a narthec for 3 weeks but it still hurts and is swollen. what can i do?

May have dislocated: The finger, which either self reduced or was done in the er. These do take up to 6 months to heal and for the swelling/discomfort to go down. Unless you had a ligament injury which might need to be repaired. Best thing for you is to see a hand surgeon who can then advise you. Good luck.
