Swollen finger

2018-01-01 03:54:44
My dad put a drill bit through his hand about a month and a half ago, right in the middle of his ring and middle finger. It has healed up nice but his finger is still badly swollen, he did have to pry his wedding ring off his finger and that caused some damage as well. He used to be a size 9 1/2 and is now a size 12 as result of the injury, is there anyway to make the swelling go down (mainly under the knuckle) so he doesn't have to get his ring resized?
