Finger movement's
As I was advised to move my fingers I am moving it ,index finger is bit difficult to move , while moving I have pain in interdigit area between index finger and middle finger and also at fracture site, the doctor in hospital kept a gauze soaked in betadine rolled it between index finger and middle finger.
I am very confused should I continue movement's or not,will it not cause any problems with healing the fracture.
FYI - I had fracture of 2 nd metacarpal of right hand.
Thanku.

You can definately move the exposed fingers which are outside the splintage but not forcefully. It wont interfere with fracture union
Next Steps
After your said period of splintage u can start physiotherapy after removal of splint
