A member asked:

I sprained my 4th finger and i cant bend it all the way and its crooked. i got an xray and its not broken. should i go back to md or wait?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

If there is a change: Since your finger has changed you need to see your physiciasn or even see a hand surgeon. Early X-rays may not see a fracture. This could be a damaged tendon or a damaged ligament or damaged lumbricals. This needs to be fixed now or it could lead to a permanent change
