Content: Take over-the-counter pain relievers. For more severe injuries, surgery may be necessary to realign the bone. It’s also important to note that if the bone pierced the skin, there’s a likelihood of developing a fever and/or infection. If this occurs, seek emergency care immediately. Complications for a Jammed Finger
Complications for a jammed finger include damage to veins, permanent stiffness of the finger, post-traumatic arthritis, or deformity of the joint. Complications for a Fractured Finger
Complications for a fractured finger include reduced range of motion, which can be treated with physical therapy. Other complications include deformity or nonunion, which are results of not receiving care promptly. Finally, if a person is a smoker, diabetic, or has kidney issues, he or she could also develop osteomyelitis, which is an infection of the bone. 24-Hour Emergency Room Services in Colorado Springs and Texas
