How To Reduce Pain And Swelling In Knuckle After An Injury?

Hi, I broke my end knuckle on my little finger about 3 months ago. I still get mild twinges of pain and it is still swollen. There is no difference in length compared to my other little finger, it s just that it is still swollen and I can t bend it as much as the other one. Do I need surgery. Regards Simon

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, soft tissue swelling might be there and it may remain there for quite long time and it may not need any surgery but of course this may need some physiotherapy, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
