Content: Never apply ice directly on your skin. Also, people who have vascular disease, diabetes or decreased sensation should talk with their doctor before applying ice. 2. Splint the Finger
Keep the affected finger splinted or immobilized until the pain is completely gone. A splint will keep the affected finger straight and prevent movement while it heals. The splint should not be too tight, which can inhibit blood circulation and lead to numbness or tingling sensations. If wearing a splint is uncomfortable, you may remove it each day for some time, but be sure not to bend your finger too much. You may need to wear the splint for 1 to 4 weeks, depending upon the severity of the injury and how quickly the finger heals. Advertisements
For a minor jammed finger, you can even tape the affected finger to an adjacent finger and be sure to restrict usage and allow it to rest. 3.
