A member asked:
How many jammed fingers or finger injuries visits occur annually to e.r.'s, from sports activities?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lots: Lots but not enough. All jammed fingers should have an x-ray and a good examination. There is often fractures or ligament injuries that are not obvious to the lay persons eye. Delay in treatment ca lead to poor outcomes.
