Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pain and swelling in finger. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like arthritis, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, psoriasis or bone fracture. In your case there are probable chances of joint dislocation. I would suggest you to apply ice pack for first 48 hours and then apply warm compresses and consult orthopedic surgeon for correction. Doctor may order X-ray to confirm the diagnosis along with physical examination. Doctor may reduce the joint and correct the condition and give plaster along with splint in severe damage. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
