Seeking Advice: Finger Fracture Question

[sajesak]

Hey everyone,

I recently had a bit of a mishap and suspect I may have fractured my finger. It's been painful and swollen for a few days now, and I'm starting to worry.

I'm debating whether I should see a doctor or if it's something I can manage at home. Has anyone here experienced a finger fracture before?

How did you know it was serious enough to seek medical attention?

Any advice on managing the pain and swelling in the meantime?

I'd appreciate any insights or personal experiences you can share.
