Re: Sprained/Broken Finger
I am a court-reporter and fractured the distal phalanx of my third finger of my right hand. The fracture is healing, however, my finger is very stiff, also does not lie as flat as my other ones. What can I do to help it? My orthopedist doctor doesn't understand that I can't do my job properly without the full use and range of motion of that finger.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
