Question

Answer 1

Do not attempt to put it back into place!! there is a chance that you will do it wrong and that may lead to surgery. if you have already gone to 2 pts, and they tried to yank it back into place numerous times you need to make sure there isn't something like a tendon or bone chip blocking it and keeping it out of joint. go to the dr and let the professionals handle it. they may give you some happy drugs to sedate you a little when they yank it back. so you would have that to look forward to. this really needs to be done by a dr so go right away. unless you like the idea of a freeky looking pinky for the rest of your life.

Answer 4

Go to an Orthopedic Doctor. I dislocated my finger once and they had to put it back in place by manipulating it and then it had to be splinted for a short time.

Answer 5

Go see a Orthopedic Doctor it needs sitting. You think it hurts now wait till the pop it back in place but then the pain go away. I was shocked when they done mine. I was hurting so bad that I didn't even now when it was over. They put it in a splint and I wore it for a couple weeks and went back and the x-rayed it again and it looked good. Good Luck
