Injury 1 month back on left ring finger
I met with an accident a month ago, it was a deep laceration- aluminium door sheets went into the left ring finger, one inch from my nail bed, Lot of bleeding went to the nearest clinic and they gave me a TT shot and used peroxide,betadine and dressed the wound, it healed well and closed but now it looks like it's inflammed- it's red, swollen and it's still so painful and i cannot bend that finger, what do i do? And do i have to visit an ortho specialist/ GP?
