Mallet finger (middle finger)

2018-05-04 11:48:59
There was a small accident, in which i got hurt on the middle finger just little below the nails. X rays shows bones are ok. But tendon was broken. This incident had happened 2 months ago. I have not taken any medicines yet. With the continues use of splint there has been lot of improvement. Now it is partially straight then before. I am still using. But could you suggest me some medicine for faster recovery.

no fast recovery medicines. if you have been wearing the splint inconsistently, as soon as you stop wearing splint it will go back to its dropped position. if it is not causing issue . leave it. other wise u need surgery.... get a hand surgeons opinion to see what to expect from here on.
