A member asked:

I am a 16 year old male and i tore a capsule in my left index finger about three and a half months ago. my finger is still swollen at the middle joint?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unsure of injurty: I am not sure what a capsule is but if you have any swelling around a joint for that long that does not get better it needs to be seen by a doctor as it might be a broken bone- especially if it happened after an injury
