How do you know if your pinkie finger is broken?

I hurt my pinkie finger playing Volleyball and it was swollen for 4 weeks so I finally went to the doctor. It ended up to be an avulsion fracture (small fracture). If your finger is broken it will be swollen. But take note: YOU CAN BEND YOUR FINGER IF IT IS BROKEN. Everyone told me that if it was broken, I wouldn't be able to bend it. And I could bend it and it was broken. If you think you hurt you pinkie, get it x-rayed. Now, because I waited so long, it will take longer to heal. Take Care and Good Luck.

How do you tell if a finger is broken?

Well, the only time it's real easy to tell that a limb is broken is when it can bend or has bent between two joints. Any other situation pretty much require medical knowledge.Easy rules like "if you can move it it's not broken" aren't proof, as it will depend on both the break and the person's pain threshold too much.The only time you can safely tell that a finger or any other limb is broken w/o x-rays is when it's bending or bent between two joints, in a place where it should be stiff and straight.I broke my pinkie (avulsion fracture), playing Volleyball. It was swollen right in the middle part of my finger. My coach, teammates and friends told me that if I broke it I wouldn't be able to bend it. And guess what? I could bend it and I did brake it. So don't delay getting it x-rayed because you can bend it if it is broken. Now that I have waited 4 weeks to get it x-rayed, and now it will screw up my season in volleyball. If it remains swollen after 10 days get it checked. I seriously regret not going to the doctor. Take Care.just go see a dr, or (I think) you can't move it/it hurts badWell, the only time it's real easy to tell that a limb is broken is when it can bend or has bent between two joints.
