Thanks for your responce! I got him an apt. with a Ortho. Dr. that specializes in hands today! Somehow me telling him that his finger could turn out deformed changed his mind! : )
Improper treatment of a fracture results in deformity of that bone while healing.
For complete proper cure of a fracture X-ray is essential and if positive, immobilization of that bone is required.
Cast is not required for middle finger and he can just use a spling for 4 weeks for complete recovery and it is a very simple procedure.
Please consult an orthopaedician immediately.
Take care!
