is it a sprain or break?
it's been over a week and I still can't use my pinky finger. I've had it in splints and supports. I've iced it and I don't know why I can't put any pressure on it. Any ideas?

is it swollen? who splinted it? alternate ice with heat - sprains just don't go away in a week or so-whoever splint it probably felt there wasn't a break cause we all no breaks take @ least 6 wks to heal☻

A break can only be confirmed by x-ray - but it will take more than a week to cure either -- if you think it is broke - does it need "setting" - if no- just keep doing what you're doing for another 6 weeks - (that's how long it takes a break to heal)
