The tip of a finger is swollen

Swelling at the tip of a finger may be caused by bruising or impact. This situation is caused by poor blood circulation in the fingers. We should massage the fingers appropriately and apply blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing drugs. In addition to pressure, it may also be caused by urticaria, but urticaria will have itching symptoms, which can be distinguished.

1. Injury

If a child is naughty, his fingers may swell due to accidental pricking or squeezing. This is a common cause. If there is skin damage, it is best to see a doctor first and do not deal with it blindly.

2. Urticaria

If your fingers suddenly swell and ache, and if it is an external injury, you should consider whether it is caused by mosquito bites. This usually happens in young children, and there will be itching, pain, and redness and swelling of the fingers. At this time, use external ointments for treatment.

3. Smashed or sprained

If you sprain your finger, swelling may easily occur, for example, if you accidentally bump into it while playing sports or playing ball. In this case, generally no treatment is required. Cold compress can effectively reduce swelling.

However, it should be noted that no matter what the cause of the swollen fingers is, you should avoid soaking your hands in hot water to prevent the local swelling from becoming more severe, and you should also avoid massage. Swollen fingers usually feel painful. Avoid letting laundry detergent or other irritating substances come into contact with your fingers. Also avoid drinking alcohol to avoid affecting the treatment effect.
