Suggest Remedies For A Cut At The Base Tendon In Index Finger
Question: Hi. I have a possible cut to the base tendon in index finger. What is the protocol? Does it need immediate attention or can it wait until Monday? Monday will be 6 days from injury..
Brief Answer:
I want to see images of your cut
Detailed Answer:
Hello, I have studied your case. If there is deep cut then tendon injury can be there. I want to see images of your injury so that I can tell you if you need any urgent intervention.
Also let me know if there is any movement in finger or not. Because if tendon injury is there then finger movement is not possible.
Please send me answers of these questions. I will try my best to help you. Thanks
