A member asked:
I had a deep cut one of the joints of my index finger, it was closed by glue but i now get sharp shooting pains in the fingertip when reaching, why?

Nerve pain.: Probably nerve regrowth in process. I am not sure how long ago your injury was, but this often takes several months to resolve.
