Content: Rest your finger. The simplest way to relieve pain is to rest your finger until it gets better. You may have a more serious injury if you continue using your hand after suffering from a finger injury. Apply ice. Reduce swelling further by applying ice wrapped in thin cloth or towel to your jammed finger or broken joint. Do this for 20 minutes every hour if pain persists. Use the adjacent finger as a splint. To immobilize your jammed finger, use the next finger as a splint by simply taping the injured finger to it. This will protect your injured finger from inadvertently getting hit against something, causing delayed healing. When to See a Doctor
A jammed finger is a very common sports injury, but it is often overlooked.
