Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
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. Regards
