If i have a small but deep cut on my finger and now my finger is swollen is that dangerous?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Finger: It really depends on the timing since the onset of the injury, the death of the cut, and the progression meaning has been getting better or worse. If it seems to be getting better but is still slightly swollen this is probably normal is getting more swollen or extending up or down your finger you need to seek medical attention promptly.
