@OldSpeclkledHen strap it together with your ring finger until you can get it checked out, that's what they do for broken fingers anyway. Can you take some paracetamol and ibuprofen to help with the pain, hope you are ok

@BeCleverSquid thank you Flowers I've done both of those - just feeling sorry for self now Grin

@OldSpeclkledHen your allowed to feel sorry for yourself, I recommend a good book or something good on TV cuddled up with your dog and some snacks to help you through the night 😂. Hopefully you can get to the hospital tomorrow and find out for definite what you have done

Lolly stick is a good idea, I'm always doing something to my hands and fingers ( I fall a lot!)
