Bone fracture
Hi,
On 21st may, i had a hairline fracture on my right knuckle of the little finger(pinkie finger). I was suggested crepe bandage nd support to keep the finger straight. Now both the pinkie fingers of both hand do not look same. The finger that was fractured has a depression near its knuckle, although no pain is present there and no swelling.
Please help

There must be some angulation at the#site. If it's more than a month, it's impossible to correct the deformity. Functionally it won't cause much problem, cosmetically it will look bad. Only way to correct the deformity is surgery
