Typical problems: Everything you have described sounds typical of people who have been in accident. The finger injury is likely to resolve on its own. you should treat the wound with topical ointment and dressing. headaches result from concussion can last weeks to months. people haveabdominal complaints after accidents, with bowel complaints as well, with bowel habits changes. It will likely pass soon.
