Interphalangeal injury

2018-03-14 03:44:18
I m practising kunfu. During slapping technique . I got an injury at 2nd interphalangeal joint of ring finger of right hand. I have pain on applying pressure at that joint. I had somewhat swollen also. Having red and blue color at that joint . After 12 hours the color comes back to normal colour. But I still have pain and a feeling of numbness in that finger. Can you please tell me what to do for this.

Soft tissue injuries around the joints in fingers take about 3 weeks to heal. Resting the joint by strapping the finger to adjacent one (buddy strapping) will help in healing. X rays to rule out fracture if pain is persistant.
