Possible mallet finger

2017-09-18 02:50:33
I had an accident 2 months ago that mangled my index finger. Now, after roughly a week and a half with the pins out, I still can't fully straighten out my finger, and it's swollen. I looked at my x-rays, and it looks like part of the bone has broken away.
