instruction: hello doctor I have a fracture of the bone joint on my right hand ring finger which was caused by a road traffic accident were I was hit by a van pulling out of a side road I was due surgery to repair the injury last month the surgeon decided not to operate as under the live ray he was able to manipulate the bone back into the joint therefore asked physio to splint the finger the issue is each time I take the splint of to clean the bone is back as fracture and am not able to bend my ring finger I am due to see my surgeon as the splitting is not working any advice of what I need to ask my surgeon to do is most appreciated
output: hi well there is intro articular fracture of base of middle phalanx of your ring finger if I would be the surgeon then I would have gone for operative treatment because intro articular fractures need perfect reduction if he has decided to treat it non operatively then he could have applied plaster or strapping which is not removable like your current splint
