After a cast is removed from a broken wrist, finger numbness can persist for a few days to several weeks, depending on the severity of the injury and any nerve involvement. This numbness is often due to swelling, stiffness, or irritation of the nerves. It's important to gently move and rehabilitate the fingers to promote circulation and healing. If numbness continues or worsens, it's advisable to consult a healthcare professional.

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 serious is a broken scaphoid bone?
It can be very serious depending on the conditions of the break. If you have a non-union like I did it can take a long time. I had a long arm cast for 5 months and a wrist brace for 3 more months and I'm still not healed. The scaphoid is on of the slowest healing bones in the body and many times requires surgery with a pin, screw, bone graft, or a combination of a pin and a bone graft.If you are lucky enough to catch the break early, it can simply be treated with a cast for up to 6 weeks. It all depends on the severity and conditions of your break.
