Got hit on index finger by lether ball
Index finger joint injured one month back. Lot of pain then but no pain untill finger is moved or touched. Applying volini and using bandage. swelling has come down but still left on joint and not able to bend it becuse of that. No sign of crack otherwise could not have survived the pain. Had similar injuries before and recovered in 2 weeks. This time it's taking time. Is it because this time it's on joint?
