Hi, I recently sprained/fractured/broke (not sure which) my hand (or maybe just my knuckle?) it swelled up and was pretty sensitive but wasn't too bad so I didn't go see a doctor. Now that the swelling has gone down I can see that it healed wrong. The bone above my pinkie finger bends upwards, it looks pretty weird. I was wondering what could be done about this? Can a doctor re-break the bone and put it in a splint? Any info/similar experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
