Sprained middle finger?

Question

Well I think I sprained my middle finger, I forgot to stretch before doing exercises, how long should I rest it for? If my middle finger is out straight horizontally, I can't press it down on a surface without it hurting, but gripping is just fine. Is there something I could do to fix it or do I just have to wait?

Answer 1

Ice and Advil will help with the pain, but ultimately you're going to have to wait it out. It'll heal faster if you rest it and don't use it too much as well.
