Avatar m tn About two months ago my 11 year old boy complained of finger tip pain (his right middle finger tip). He can not recalled if he jammed his finger tip. Now the fingernail has a small hole in it and the nail felt soft. He is physically fine and there is no pain in the indicated finger. Please advise.
Avatar f tn I jammed my finger on wed. and have been unable to see a doctor due to lack of insurance. My finger bends (not completely or with ease) and the swelling went down considerably after the first day. However there is a little numbness and swelling and the underside of the middle knuckle (the one that i believe got the blow) is very purple and bruised. Do i need to just relax and give it time or should i seek out a free clinic.

Avatar m tn Does herpes whitlow cause pain under the fingernail and forearm? I've heard of the tingling and burning, I'm not feeling either but I'm feeling numbness under the fingernail and forearm? I did use the bathroom and with the same hand I pulled up my zipper and then in seconds used the underneath of my fingernail very firmly to secure it without washing my hands, very paranoid I spread the virus to my zipper then to the underneath of my fingernail.
Avatar n tn Get your dog in a corner of the sofa or somewhere else where you can control it, with a bright light to help you see in the mouth. Now check for foreign matter - usually twigs, but it could be anything. You may find a bit of twig, bone or whatever jammed up into the gum between two teeth. Or, and I've read about this, there may actually be a piece of something jammed into the soft palate. Good luck.
Avatar f tn Hi, I have swelling in my pinky finger for about 2 - 3 months. If i bump my pinky it is very sore by the middle joint even if I touch it.I went to an orthopedic hand specialist and he asked if I jammed my finger. I explained to him that I didn't jam my finger. He took x-rays and said it wasn't dislocated.He then came back into the room and said I probably jammed my pinky and just don't remember. I know I would remember jamming my finger as I have done that in the past.

Avatar m tn Could this be a type of fingernail material growing from the scalp? The physical consistency of this 'hair' strongly resembles that of a fingernail. Extensive searching the net has found nothing. Surely my daughter is not the only case like this. I read about keratin, but it seems the keratin in hair and nails is the same.
Avatar m tn She seemed to be struggling to get the device to work, as it looked like the lancet was jammed in there, so she (presumably) used another lancet and manually pricked my finger. The test was negative. The reason I am worried, is that there was a couple that tested before me, and I am scared that the same lancet was used on all of us. Our testing could not have been more than 5 - 10 minutes apart.
Avatar n tn I jammed my left (non-dominant) pinky finger and now the top of the finger is bent down towards my palm (from the top knuckle). A little discomfort in palm and top of hand. The bent portion above the top knuckle refuses to go back into place. Could it be broken? If jammed and I splint it, will it correct itself eventually? Don't want to spend 3 hrs in the ER and end up with a splint I can do from home. Thanks.
Avatar m tn I jammed my middle finger 5 weeks ago. The pain went away from the middle of the finger but the top portion I still feel pain when I lift something, or when I put pressure against the top of it. I have attached a picture and circled the part that hurts. Thanks!

Avatar m tn Hey there, Am I at risk of any serious disease if I get a very mild scratch from some other man's fingernail? This happened to me a few days back while travelling in a train. Since then, I have been thinking about it and it has been causing me a lot of anxiety. Any help would be extremely appreciated. Thanks and regards.
Avatar n tn About two months ago my fingernail developed a black mark near the nailbed. It has since continued up toward the top of the nail while changing brownish now puple with the uppermost tip is turning white.

Avatar m tn My question is if the wetness I felt on the door handle had been blood and it had gotten on my fingertips and nails and had been wet hiv blood and it got on the fingernail that I punctured and cut my chin with could I have gotten hiv from my fingernail with wet hiv blood puncturing and cutting my chin? Thanks for all the hard work you do and thank you if you will answer my question. Do I need hiv testing for this incident?
Avatar m tn ve had this happen to me more than once) Any serious crunching to the nail on your finger will cause this to happen - the bruising underneath the nail is what causes it to fall off, and the bump in the middle of where the nail used to be is actually the new fingernail growing back.
