A member asked:
Small finger amputation revision possible?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Almost always...: Amputations in the digits can almost always be revised. This can be done for any number of reasons: pain, bone end too close to the skin, better fitting of a prosthesis, etc. See a hand surgeon. Good luck!

Maybe: Revision surgery can often be performed, but this question can't adequately be addressed without additional details and an examination of the finger.
