About Broken Finger

A broken finger, or finger fracture, is a common orthopedic injury involving a break in one or more of the small bones (phalanges) in the finger. Treatment by an orthopedic specialist focuses on realigning the fractured bone fragments to ensure proper healing and restore full function, strength, and dexterity. Depending on the severity, treatment may range from non-surgical methods like splinting or buddy taping to surgical intervention involving pins, screws, or plates for complex or displaced fractures. The primary goal is to stabilize the fracture, prevent stiffness, and enable a return to normal activities. Early and appropriate orthopedic care is crucial to avoid long-term complications such as arthritis, deformity, or permanent loss of motion.

PATIENT REVIEW

Had my gallbladder out at MGM....

Had my gallbladder out at MGM. Dr. Vinod was really clear about what to expect after. The first couple days were rough, I won't lie, but his team had a good plan for the pain that actually worked. Follow-up was simple, he just told me to take it easy and call if anything felt off. Felt normal again quicker than I thought.
