I am assuming you mean bruised.\nBut it in a splint to avoid further movement and injury.

Take it off for your shower only. I learned this the hard way. My broken thumb is just now mended.\n\nI kept taking my splint off all the time and when I had it x-rayed after 2 weeks it hadn't healed at all. After that I left it on 24/7 (except to shower) and when I went back in 3 weeks it was moostly healed. \n\nLOL! My boyfrend kept yelling at me...

Rest your elbow. Take NSAIDs (like Ibuprofen). Warm up and strech before you play, wrap it while playing. Ice it afterwards. Repeat. Try playing for a while with your non-dominant hand for awhile.

It's probably broken, or at least really sprained. My sister did the same thing. Best thing you can do is go to the doctor. If left uncared for too long, it can get worse. They'll know what to do. Broken fingers and toes are actually a pretty easy fix. Good luck! And be more careful :-)

I had similar problems with my fingers when I started playing guitar. My pinky never wanted to cooperate. It just takes lots of practice. Sometimes you have to use whatever finger works best for the particular chord you are trying to play. Good Luck!!

Oh my god!  Go to the ER!!  Ahh, not really though I am sure someone is going to answer that.  They always do.  \n\nFirst off I agree that this is extremely unlikely to be cardiac related.  I am comforted by the fact that you can replicate the discomfort by movement.  The most likely thing that you did was either a muscle strain or possibly even a sprain where the ligaments stabilize the cartilage and bone joint at about your central chest (roughly at the nipple line vertically).  If its a sprain you should be able to isolate the spot right there.  If its a strain its more likely to be generalized.  Either way  the treatment is the same.  Rest, Ice, anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen.  After a day if you are still having the discomfort you can add a warm water soak and gentle stretching to the plan.  It should resolve on its own within the week.\n\n(Oh, and I really buy the getting ready for bed story wink wink)\n\nGood luck.. I hope you're feeling better soon.

Really, it depends on the stage of your condition.  This condition can be described in six stages, delineated by number.  Stage one refers to a finger that has normal movement.  There may be tenderness in the area of the metacarpal heads or at the base of the thumb.  In stage two, finger movement is defined as uneven, although there is not yet triggering.  The characteristic triggering occurs in stage three.  A stage four trigger finger actually locks upon extension (or flexion) but can be unlocked by actively moving the finger into further extension (or flexion).  By stage five, the finger must be passively extended (or flexed) in order to unlock it.  A finger that can no longer be unlocked, either actively or passively, is considered to be in stage six.  Pain may or may not accompany each of these stages.\n\nWhat is happening is that the tendon of the finger is inflamed and is trying to squeeze through a small opening that it cannot fit through.  You can probably feel a knot in the tendon.\n\nAnyway, to answer your question, there are several options to treatment besides surgery.  It is recommended to try conservative treatment first.  Splinting, corticosteroid injections, and something called iontophoresis (infusing the area with an anti-inflammatory drug via electrical stimulation) are the main options.  \n\nIn general, if symptoms have been present for greater than 6 months, success of splinting and injection are significantly decreased.  In this circumstance, surgery may be the only effective route to take.  If the trigger finger is in stage six, splinting and injection are not likely to be effective.  In this case, surgery is the primary form of treatment employed.\n\nI hope this helps.  An occupational therapist can provide a splint for you if you are in the beginning stages.  Iontophoresis is also done by occupational therapists and is painless.  A physician can tell you about corticosteroid injections.  It may, of course recur, but it may after surgery as well...  Good luck!

Put it down and back away slowly and calmly, so as not to excite the penis.\n\nKeep all your movements slow, calm and smooth.\n\nIf you're talking about one that's too small, then you can feel free to laugh and point hysterically.  It can't hurt you.

Ice and rest.  If you are sure it is just sprained just put ice on it for a while--15 min on/15 min off for the first 24 hrs.  rest your thumb by wearing a brace or splint (you can buy at drug store) for a few days.  Take tylenol or advil for any pain.  if the pain increases or it gets to the point where you think it is broken see a dr.

Just continue to keep it elevated and ice it.  I know it's hard to do with a three year old they wait for no one.  I had surgery on my leg with a baby in tow as well. As long as you don't run a fever or feel any other additional pains etc. You should be fine, sometimes you will swell up a few days after but by tomorrow it should go down. If not, then call your doctor again and insist you need to be seen if they take it lightly.   You can barely move your fingers from the swelling so that's not too unusual but again if it worsens and you just don't feel it's right, insist on seeing the doctor. Good luck and fast healing!

I had carpal tunnel syndrome in both hands and had both operated on in a simple procedure.  Both of my hands would fall asleep and be painful.  You will have pain from the thumb to the ring finger, but the pinky won't fall asleep.  This will happen if your hands are in the same position, like holding a newspaper or carrying groceries or whatever.  Often I would wake up from my hands aching.\n\nI wore braces on my hands for awhile, but it wasn't helping so I went to an orthopedist who did the surgeries.  \n\nIf you decide to have surgery, don't have them both done the same day or you can't wipe your butt by yourself!!!  :oP

Lightly press on it with your other hand in various directions. Don't press too hard or you could harm it more! If this hurts, put some ice on it and contact your doctor.

I have used the kenisgnton orbit elite mouse. My fingers were sore befoire I used this, cleared immediatly. The main reason is that it makes you use the outside of you thumb and pinkey without bending them. Also no middle button with often the root of the problem.
