Ring fingertip skin injury
The skin of my ring finger was cut with a sickle 15 days ago but there was no damage to the bone of the finger. The doctor healed the wound by applying a bandage but the cut skin has become numb and stone-like. I have attached the photo as well. Please suggest further treatment.

The cut was too deep , if you have sutured the wound it would have be healed better , but the cut edges are not approximated so wound did not heal better , wait for few more weeks .
