Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
Hi and welcome to HCM
From description it seems your broken finger got malunited and this might be the cause of deformity. I suggest you to get an xray of hand done to see the current status of bone and fractured area so that appropriate treatment plan would be considered.
I do hope that you have found something helpful and informative and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care.
