Hi guys,
played today and dislocated a finger, whilst dropping a catch, my bat also broke, with me holing out for 0! not a good day at the office.
Has anyone else had any experiences with broken/dislocated fingers?
how long before i can play, i really want to play monday!

Tape it up and you will be grand

that was my plan, everyone is telling me to rest it, but it feels fine, the ump slotted it back in on the pitch, and i couldnt be happier.

I dislocated one and it's still not gone down properly 10 weeks later. I wouldn't risk it, personally, get to A+E and see if there's any lasting damage.

there were a couple of gp's there who were happy with it, but they said not to play untill next wednesday, there is no swelling now, and only a little stiffness along the 'proximal phalanges' (according to an internet diagram)

I'd review your decision in the morning, may be a little sore then ;)

Having broken every finger bar 1 and a thumb they reckon it takes 6 weeks on avg for a break to fully heal but if you can put up with it you'll be fine to play
Just get a lolly pop stick between the fingers make sure it is straight then tape up

I broke my little finger in three places 4 weeks ago and played a 20/20 last night...bloody hell that hurt! Still throwing the ball back to the bowler with my wrong hand and when I took guard and,forgetting, smacked my bat down making a mark I felt faint. Dont risk it its not worth it for a few games

My broken little finger was fine to play after five weeks. Worth resting up rather than pushing it though.

At school i dislocated a finger and the p.e teacher didnt recognise it, i was only 13. Lived with it for a week, and when the pain became excruciating, went to a7e and had it slotted back in. The doctors and nurses couldnt believe I had lived with a dislocated finger for a week!!! The finger has never eally got better, still alittle bent

Just recovering from a dislocated little finger and a split webbing to boot!!!
Pretty painful! Dropped the catch too!! Went to a and e and they glued the split webbing!! Still got the fingers taped up though!
-
yeh, dont worry about it, mine was fine about 48 hours later, nut i didnt use any tape, cos i didnt want it to go limp

Gonna try and have a thrash on Thursday in a twenty 20 comp game? See how it goes and if alls well a game on Saturday!!!
