finger sprain
Twisted hand joint
A finger sprain is an injury to the ligaments connecting the bones of a finger, typically caused by jamming, bending, or twisting the finger beyond its normal range.
Sprains range from mild stretching to complete tears, causing pain, swelling, and difficulty gripping: She wore a splint for her finger sprain after catching the basketball wrong.
