Jammed my finger playing basketball. it is sore, hard to bend. anything i can do to alleviate the soreness, or just let time run it's course?

Don't force bending: Rest your finger, splint it with neighbouring finger, if it isn't the thumb, take NSAIDS, unless contraindicated, and see your doctor, you may need an xray, best wishes
