Finger stiffness
Yesterday as I was jumping to sit on my bed with my hands down, I guess I bent my fingers too back and heard a crack and my index finger was immediately painful and I grabbed it. It swelled up, and was painful for a good 30 min or so, and I did have a weird numbness kind of feeling that went to the base knuckle of my middle finger. Today, upon waking my finger feels better no pain, but a little tender to touch on proximal phalange of index and cannot bend finger straight over Palm. Is it broken
⢠Contrast bath---It is a form of treatment where a limb or the entire body is immersed in warm water followed by the immediate immersion of the limb or body in ice water. This procedure is repeated several times, alternating hot and cold. Note that the treatment should always end in the ice water, as heat will induce the body's inflammatory response, while cold helps to decrease inflammation.
