Reply to "Dislocated Finger...ouch!"

scdigger, how'd the x-ray go? Hopefully everything came back clear, but I would not be surprised at all if a bone was fractured either at the time of injury or when it was reduced. If there is a fracture, it should be splinted/casted and allowed to heal! Be careful; many believe it's "Just a Finger" but he'll want that finger later on so don't screw it up by letting him do more than he is able..

If he is cleared by physician or athletic trainer to return to play, you may consider looking at a finger splint that can be worn inside of the glove.
