2. If the interphalangeal joint is dislocated, it may be dislocated or fractured, so you should see a doctor immediately. The interphalangeal joint must be kept in a normal anatomical position to avoid further injury and maximize the recovery of finger function.
3. If the interphalangeal joint cannot flex, the extensor tendon, flexor tendon or attached phalanx may be damaged. This also needs to go to the hospital as soon as possible, and early repair can avoid finger dysfunction as much as possible.
4. After the injured finger is injured, it should be fixed immediately and the activity of the injured finger should be reduced, so as not to continue playing until it is fully recovered. Intense exercise will aggravate the injury and prolong the rehabilitation time of injured fingers.
5. Ice compress can reduce inflammatory reaction, eliminate swelling and relieve pain. On the first day of injury, the affected finger was iced for 20 minutes every hour. Wrapping ice cubes with towels can avoid frostbite of limbs.
6. Fixing the affected finger with the adjacent finger or tying it to the tongue depressor/popsicle can play a fixing role and effectively avoid aggravating the injury.
7. When the finger swelling and pain subside, you can remove the adhesive tape: after removing the adhesive tape, you can move your fingers moderately, but you should still avoid strenuous activities until your fingers fully recover.
