What Should I Do For a smashed finger?


Question:
i smashed my finger and it has been in ice since about 7:30 eastern time..what should i do to help

Answers:
If you can't really move it, make an anatomical splint for it. (Tape it to the finger next to it) And keep icing it. I would go to the doctor also.

Other Answers:
Amputate it.
ouch! go see your doctor he'll help you
Put it into a vise and unsmash it.
Well if it starts to turn black, blue and purple all over then go to the dr. b/c when my sister smashed hers in a car door she iced it and iced it and iced it and it still wouldn't stop swelling so my nanny/maid took her to the dr and it turned out she broke it to pieces and had to get it put in a cast for a month and it needed to be reconstructed.
that depends on how bad you smashed it. If its oozing blood and the bone is broken I'd say you need to go to the hospital. But if you can still wiggle it and no bones are stickin out then youll probably be ok. :P
Put it on ice until you can get yourself to the ER, Casualty or whatever they call it where you are. Let them XRay it and see what needs to be done from there.
It should taste good with ketchup.yum yum.
drill a hole in it with a very small drill bit or knife an let the blood and pressure out done it many times its allmost unbearable till you release the pressure of it.
