Signs Of Broken Finger

Mononucleosis continues to dog Tigers' Inge

&Ldquo;It did. I don’t like to admit it much, but this one ... this one kind of beat me up a little bit. This one was different. It’s not fun. Not much I can say about it. It’s definitely not easy. This was one of the harder stints to deal with,” said Inge, who has been on the disabled list since June 1, but started feeling symptoms as far back as the second week of May. “I didn’t feel bad when I was on the DL, because you don’t realize how tired you are when you’re not really doing anything. When you come back and start doing physical activity, you realize how drained you really are. That’s why I know I need to get a few games in at Toledo, and I’ll be ready. But it’s not far away. I’ve always said I would never come back to a team, and play, if I felt like I was going to be a detriment to a team. I’ll never do that. I’ll always make sure that I’m at least able to perform, help out. Physically. I want to make sure that I’m right before I come back.” “I’m not far off now. For me, it’s more of a precaution. And it’s different: I’ve been on the DL before, for a broken toe, broken finger. I can still work out. This one, I couldn’t do anything. I was not allowed to do anything. So coming back from this one, you’d think you’d be able to step right back into it. But I think it would be irresponsible to think I could jump right back in,” said Inge, who was struggling at the bat before his illness, hitting just .211 on the year with one homer and 12 RBI. “It did. I don’t like to admit it much, but this one ... this one kind of beat me up a little bit. This one was different. It’s not fun. Not much I can say about it. It’s definitely not easy.

First of all, let me remind you that a finger is a finger so you should not worry. It’s just like a bee sting, nothing serious. So be a man! (or a woman)

General Broken Finger Symptoms:

1st sign:

Your finger is swollen, for weeks now. Your finger will be a bit pale in color and might seem a little crooked because of the swelling. It may also feel uncomfortable in weather changes. This is the first sign of a broken finger, but it could be just a mild sprain, about half of the time.

2nd sign:

Your finger’s flexibility is diminished. It cannot be fully stretched or contracted. This is caused by prolonged swelling, it will seem that something is stuck in between your finger. This along w/ the swelling will often indicate a serious injury if it doesn’t get better in a week or two.

3rd sign:

There is a scary painful feeling in your finger. Note that torn ligaments might not be painful when at rest. When the injured finger is at use, there might be a sharp stinging pain. A dangerous sign that something is torn or damaged.

4th sign:

Something in your finger is clicking and it feels loose. This alone would not mean anything, but if this is associated w/ any symptoms above, it is definitely serious. Specially if the symptom just came after the incident.

5th sign:

Your finger is L or V shaped. If you could bend it that way before, no problem. If not, congratulations, you broke your finger. If you have at least one of the symptoms above, you should consult with your doctor.

Don’t be scared, people have finger injuries all the time. The finger is usually injured at the joints where the ligaments reside or at the bone itself, so here are the more common injuries:

1. Finger fractures – I think this is the most serious case of finger injuries. The bone is chipped or damaged. Try to touch the bone of your finger, does it hurt? Is your finger deformed? If the answer is yes, you probably have bone fractures. You still have to get multiple x-rays to validate this.

2. Torn ligament – Basketball players all have torn ligaments, especially the fifth digit. Ligaments are the connections between two bones, injuries with ligaments may range from less serious to very serious. Torn ACL’s (around the knee cap) are nightmares to athletes since often the injury will drag them forever. Torn ligaments in fingers are generally less serious since it cannot really affect the quality of your life. Basketball players have torn ligaments in every part of their body.
