It was several hours ago and it is hurting pretty bad. turning blue-ish around knuckle and knuckle is swollen. I can bend it although it hurts. I put ice on it. Should I buddy tape it or do anything else or just give it a couple days to heal?
Thanks

I jammed my finger all the time when I played basketball. Just keep ice on it and try not to move it very much , if you want to you can wrap it up in a bandage. When it kind of stops hurting, try to pull the finger out so it won't be in that jammed position. Hope I could help :-)

your fine guess whilst you 'jam' a finger is to supply it delicate traction, that suggests tolerable (does NOT produce affliction)...the icing must truthfully be a bloodless percent (bendy gel) due to the fact exact ice may also be restricting to the finger & ESPECIALLY for a lengthy time;; the bendy bloodless percent must be implemented for 15-20 mins & implemented as wanted or while the finger has been agitated..for those who ice this factor in a single day, assume not to be competent to make use of it day after today...simply no longer how it works...you are looking to curb the swelling however preserve the tissues intact...frame demands a well "steadiness"...transfer the finger...for those who have got to, aid it out with the opposite hand, however once more, affliction-loose...well success, however day after today could also be only some days too quickly..

Alternate between hot/warm pack or water and ice. It should help reduce the pain and reduce the swelling, and give it a day. If it is just as bad or worse after a day, consider seeing a clinic or doctor.

If it still hurts a lot tomorrow, consider going to a walk-in clinic to get proper medical advice.

Just relax and give it a couple of days. It will be alright. And don't forget to have daddy give it a kiss.
