Hi,

Image result for swelling of treatment fingerswww.top10homeremedies.com. Sprained fingers are very common and can be very painful, swollen, and difficult to move.

For most people, resting, icing, compressing, and elevating (RICE) the injured finger will reduce inflammation and associated symptoms.

Most symptoms caused by a sprained finger are related to inflammation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Monish De, Oncologist
