Use / trauma / mass: Most pain that is sudden results from unrecognized trauma the day before because it may have been while playing a sport or musical instrument or overuse. Ice (20 min.on/20 min.off) will help with pain. Immobilize the finger (buddy tape or splint) with no gripping. Most mild trauma will improve in 72 hours.Motrin or Advil (ibuprofen) may help. Rarely sudden pain may be a tumor. See hand surgeon and x ray soon
