Imaging: A splint is indicated, and may be purchased or made by taping the third and fourth fingers together to a firm surface such as a piece of rounded plastic. An imaging study is indicated to rule out a fracture; avoid use of the finger affected. Place an ice pack on the area of pain. Please follow up to ensure proper healing.
