Swelling from a broken finger typically begins to subside within a few days to a week after the injury, depending on the severity of the fracture and the individual’s healing process. Ice, elevation, and rest can help reduce swelling more quickly. However, complete resolution of swelling may take several weeks. If swelling persists or worsens, it's essential to consult a healthcare professional.

To prevent or manage finger swelling in winter, try to keep your hands warm and dry by wearing gloves and avoiding exposure to cold temperatures for long periods of time. Additionally, staying hydrated and maintaining good circulation through regular exercise can help reduce swelling. If swelling persists, consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment options.
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.

If numbness continues or worsens, it's advisable to consult a healthcare professional.
It depends- if your dip your hand in cool water, it might take half a minute at least, but if your finger is not treated, only a few minutes, but it won't hurt.
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.
