Patient's question:
My baby has been playing at home recently and has been very mischievous, often making the house very messy and getting scolded frequently. The other day, he suddenly slammed the door and his little finger tip was squashed by the door. At that time, he cried very hard and couldn't move his finger. I took him to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor said it was a fracture and recommended surgical treatment.What assistance is needed: What should I do if my child's little finger tip is fractured by being squashed by the door?
Doctor's answer:
According to the patient's family's statement, the following reply is made: The severity of the finger fracture determines how surgical treatment will be implemented. If it is not a fracture but a simple bone crack, it can be treated with strict rest and rehabilitation. If it is indeed a fracture, surgical treatment is necessary. Without surgical treatment, the finger may experience recurrent dysfunction, and its aesthetic appearance will be significantly compromised. It should be noted that thorough recovery exercises are essential for functional recovery. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
