I've broke 5 and a 5th metatarsal. Length of time for healing depends on how well it gets set and the nature of the break. Most of mine were around 6 weeks until they were useful again. I have one that has a crook but it's flexible. The metatarsal required surgery and a pin and that took awhile to heal and quite a bit of rehab (including putting my hand in boiling wax as well as putting it into near boiling water). I've also had trigger release issues on all of my fingers which has resulted in 10 surgeries to fix.

Which finger? Which bone in the finger? Is it even fractured or just a bad bruise?

Might want to tape your fingers


Tape the middle one to the ring finger

I did, whilst playing footy as a youngster. I got tackled into the ground by a few dudes and thought sticking my index finger out to break the fall was a good idea. The finger is still a bit gimpy to this day.
Back off, Warchild.

Seriously.

Kimm, that could just be a nasty sprain. Happened to my ring finger while playing football with a College QB. Fkn guy threw rockets. Doc said it was either a hairline fracture or a bad sprain, and would heal on its own.

Might want to get a Doc to look at it.

Ouch! That looks so painful. You should definitely get it checked out to see exactly what is wrong with it.

Yep.. broke my thumb and a ring finger.

Tbh they were both so long ago that I don't remember, but I think around a month to six weeks. Also there isn't much they can do for them.. Can't really put a cast on a finger, right? Splint is the best they can do, so you'll have to be careful with it.

You will need to go to do the doctor for an x-ray, they may need to reset it

Hands and feet you cant do anything but finger can be reset and they’ll give you a splint

Prolly 2-3 months, depending on how severe break

Broken my right wrist twice
Broken my right arm once (recently)
Broken my left wrist once
Broken my ankle once
Dislocated my finger but never broke it

My pinky. I cracked the middle joint when I played basketball in high school. It is now ever so slightly shorter than my other pinky. I think it mostly healed in a few weeks

Hope so too, try not to use it much until you get it looked at. Then take it easy until it heals.

Did you get you get the bone reset and put in a cast or splint?

I hope you feel better.

Thanks for the well wishes everyone.

my gf broke a finger at work. She was shy to take medical leave and never went to doc either. I think she kept re-fracturing it a few times. I broke one toe while wearing vibram 5 finger shoes. Same thing, never visited doctors, never immobilized and of course, re-fractured it at least twice after.

A year ago I dislocated big toe. Looked like fracture, but it was actual dislocation. Took doctor’s advise and kept wearing a spline. Ended up with frozen joint. Can’t bend big toe, no matter what I do, it has been a year.

Your finger look like fracture to me.

Oh man see that's my problem. I have 4 dogs to take care of and household chores all day long. I have my middle finger up all day trying to keep it out of the way. I use my hands/fingers for everything I do.

I can't lift because I can't grip anything and unlike most women today...I actually prefer training upper body.

I'm in a bad mood and this fukin sucks...
