Finger pain: I don't know if trauma happened to the finger or the duration of this pain. Generally using something simple as Paracetamol / Tylenol (acetaminophen) can help with pain. But keep in mind that the finger should be examined by a medical provider. Descriptions are sometimes difficult to discern inflammation versus a bacterial infection. Hope your mom feels better
