Broken little finger

Had the most lovely evening with DD14. We had some good food, caught up on life and for the first time in years she came and sat on my lap.

We were messing around, she knows I hate my palms being tickled.

Anyway it descended into a game of 'mercy'. She went rogue, we both heard my little finger snap.

She is so sorry and that's a shame as I don't want her to be. We both messing about.

I'm just wondering if a splint will sort it in morning. It's the first knuckle bone from nail on the little finger.

Can't be arsed with A&E. It's going a bit bruised, but unless I bend it down purposefully, it doesn't really hurt.

So yeah, thoughts on strapping and splint in morning please.

She's gutted. I said it's okay because I might never be able to wash up or vacuum again 🤣. Bless her. We were being silly.

You should get seen. My DH thought he has broken his little finger but it had been dislocated and broken. So had to be popped back in.

The nurse said if he’d left it the bones would have fused together and it wouldn’t have been able to be relocated (if that’s the right word!).
