What Causes Persistent Pain In Little Finger?
I popped a blood vessel in my right pinky last August and it still sometimes bugs me. When I push on it my back knuckle of the finger feels like it is moving. I work as an ASL interpreter and I need my hands. Is there anything I can do besides just bracing the pain and bracing my finger?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
The use of anti inflammatory pain killers may help eg naproxen, ibuprofen or cataflam.
You can also consider trying topical voltaren to help reduce any inflammation that may be present.
An occasional warm compress to the area may also be helpful as well.
I hope this helps
