Finger sprain

Injuries that involve tearing or stretching of the ligaments of your fingers are termed as sprains. Sprains in the fingers are most often caused from a fall when you extend your arms to reduce the impact of the fall, or from overuse or repetitive activity of the thumb such as with texting.

Symptoms:

• Reduction in your ability to grasp items
• Pain immediately after the injury
• Swelling and bruising of the fingers
• Redness and tenderness

Investigations

• Physical Examination
• X-ray

Non-surgical Treatments

• Dry Needling
• Steroid and Hyaluronic Acid Image Guided Injections
