Mallet finger is an injury that frequently occurs in sports such as baseball, basketball or football when you try to catch a hard ball and it hits your extended fingertip. The injury frequently affects a finger on the hand you use the most (your dominant hand).

How common is mallet finger?

Mallet finger is a common condition, especially with athletes. But it can also occur when performing household activities if you strike the tip of a finger on an immoveable object such as a door or wall.

Who is at risk of mallet finger?

This injury is most commonly in baseball players, but it anyone who plays a sport that involves hard balls (basketball, volleyball, football, etc.) can get it. In fact, anyone can get a mallet finger injury, even from doing something as simple as making the bed.

Surgery may also be needed in situations where the injury is left untreated for more than four to six weeks and problem called a swan-neck deformity develops.

Fortunately, most people can heal this injury with the proper use of a simple splint.

What is the treatment for mallet finger?

A splint is worn for 6-8 weeks to keep the finger straight with the end joint bent backwards slightly (overextended). It must be worn all the time, day and night. There are many different types of splints available. The type of splint given often depends on the size and shape of your finger. You must not take the splint off at any time during this treatment. If you have to take it off (for example, to wash) then you must keep that finger straight and not allow it to bend (flex). Keeping the finger straight constantly allows the two ends of the torn tendon or bone to stay together and heal. About three in four cases heal well with this treatment.

How to know when a mallet finger is healed?

So, how do you tell if the mallet finger is healed? Generally speaking, the most important thing is that there's a resolution of symptoms and that your finger now has active extension. It may still droop a little, but not as much as before
