My cousin one time had to take one stick of a clothespin and put it on the bottom of her finger (on the palm side) and tape it there but rap gauze around it first. It will help straighten it and so what you could probably do. Go to the doc and good luck and hope u feel better oh...and ask him about the bruised finger too!!!!!

May be worth going to the doctor to have it checked out. Is it swollen? Take advil to reduce swelling if you have any and pain. I couldn't move a finger for a couple weeks because of a "bruised" tendon so could be something else is hurt or it could be broken. An x-ray will tell you for sure. Until then, you can try to tape it to the middle finger and ring finger to hold them together in a stable way.

From time to time, I believe everyone is bruised and broken from situations in live, but we all have the power to be strong and heal and feel whole once again from the love for ourselves and from the love of our family and friends. I hope your friend is better soon = )
