Yes -: The symptoms depend upon the type of fracture, location, and severity of associated soft tissue injury. These symptoms include pain, stiffness, swelling, and can be associated with deformity of the digit. The severity of these symptoms depend on the factors note above - so yes, in some fractures one can still move the finger -.
