Suggest Treatment For Pain In Ring Finger

I was lift a heavy box and heard a pop sound and now my ring finger is painful both at rest and in flexure. I think it may be a tendon. I am wondering if I should let some time go by to heal or if surgery is need am I better to go get it looked at now? Thanks for your time

welcome to Hcm
the complaint is more suggestive of an hairline fracture. an X-ray of hand is advised here.
I strongly suggest to see a local orthopedist.
