I staved/jammed a finger playing football way back in late March. it swelled up and bruised nicely and after a few days I managed to remove my wedding ring (with a fair amount of swearing, washing up liquid and a bit of pain).
Coming up 3 months later I still can't get my wedding ring back on over the proximal interphalangeal joint.
I have full motion in the finger although I do get some mild discomfort in the joint when clenching my fist, but it doesn't stop me from doing anything (playing sport, swimming, catching/throwing, typing, picking up things, etc). I don't think there was a fracture, just some ligament damage.
The PIP joint does look a bit swollen on the outside (lateral with palm facing down) compared to my other ring finger.
Is it worth going to minor injuries or should I just leave it a bit longer?
