Any finger injury is eventually going to need splinting. You can tape a metal strip or a stick to the bones adjacent to the sprained finger joint. Popsicle sticks are popular for this. Many times you can just tape the jammed finger to an uninjured one. We call that a buddy splint. You can tell if it feels stable enough with this.

﻿One of the most common basketball or volleyball hand injuries is a jammed finger This injury occurs from a blunt impact or forced motion to the proximal interphalangeal joint (PIP) of the fingers. Fingers are comprised of three different joints. Each joint is supported by ligaments, called collateral ligaments. On the palm aspect of the joint is a structure called the volar plate. A jammed finger is generally a sprain or injury to one of these ligaments. Depending on the severity of the impact, which will stress the ligaments at your PIP, the varying degrees of this injury will range from a simple jam to a more serious finger fracture or dislocation.

We called it a jammed finger. Invariably someone would try to unjam it for us. They’d catch hold and pull with a jerk as hard as they could. I still see it in the office. Grown men and women pulling on their jammed fingers after injuring them on a home project. It’s bound to happen in disasters. The problem is, a jammed finger is usually a sprain. Sometimes there’s a broken bone, or a torn tendon or ligament. Pulling on it is not going to help. It only causes needless pain and can damage the joint further. Even if it’s truly dislocated, pulling the finger with a jerk to unjam it is never the treatment. Just like ankles, knees, and other joints, finger joints have tendons and ligaments. They get sprained, even torn, and, like other injured joints, swell up.
