What to do for a staved finger?

What you need to do is add Ice to it and make sure to keep it elevated (You can put your arm on a pillow to allow better blood flow, and make less blood flow directly into the finger to allow the swelling to go down) Also, you need to tape the larger finger next to the staved on, tape them TOGETHER. You did not mention which finger you staved, so for example if it is your RING finger, you would tape your MIDDLE finger with it (not the pinky) When you are playing football, you need to keep them taped, and put BOTH fingers in the SAME FINGER HOLDER in the gloves. Trust me, this will allow goal keeping with much more comfort. Also, be sure to ice the finger after the game. You can ice it up to 4 times per day. Take Paracetamal or an NSAID (Such as Diclofenac Sodium) Which should be OTC (over the counter) It is in most parts of Europe. You can also try to get some Buprofen Plus (IB Profen with 16mg of Codeine for pain) Source? I am a 1st year resident Medical Doctor.

Who has a greater bite force pit bull or crocodile?

A crocodile definitely produces much more bite force. Herpetologist Brady Barr measured the bite force of a great white shark at 669 pounds (303.45 kg). However, this is probably not the best bite force that a great white shark can produce. But, in any case, the shark has such razor-sharp teeth that he doesn't need a greater bite force. He also measured the bite force of a crocodile of South Africa at 2500 pounds (1133.98 kg)! After that, he measured the bite force of a very big Nile crocodile at 5000 pounds (2267.96kg)! This is also the most powerful bite ever measured from any animal. And that was still a defensive bite, despite the brute force that this crocodile produced, as it bit the bite meter only when it was brought in its mouth, while it was resting. If this crocodile had bitten the bite meter while charging at it, especially in water, the bite force would have been even greater.

What is the bite force of a Siberian tiger?

According to the "animal face-off" series, a male tiger has an impressive bite force of 1000 pounds. This is equal to 453 kg, and it means that it can cut through bone. There are indeed cases of male tigers that pierced through the skulls of other male tigers with their canines, during territorial fights. The lion has also the same bite force. In the "animal face-off" series, it was stated that scientists have developed a statistical formula to measure the bite force; Bite force = 2 (M x m+ T x t) / Length U, according to which, the bite force for both the tiger and the lion is 1000 pounds. However, the bite force is not the same for all tigers (and lions). It depends on the size, strength, age (etc) of the particular individual. Hyenas have a greater bite force than tigers (and lions). However, a tiger's bite (or a lion's bite) is much more devastating than a hyena's bite, because of the larger teeth that a tiger (or a lion) has.they bite so hard that when they bite they can rip your flesh open
