Finger Pain

Finger pain is a throbbing, cramp-like, or achy pain that’s felt in any of your fingers, including your thumb. It often results from an accident or a medical condition. In most cases, finger pain isn’t serious and will go away on its own. However, unexplained finger pain can be a sign of a more serious medical condition.

The most common cause of finger pain is a hand injury. Injuries to the finger can cause an open cut, a bruised or fractured bone, or muscle and tissue damage.

Common injuries that result in finger pain are:

  • Broken fingers are often caused by jamming the finger during contact sports or while improperly handling heavy-duty equipment.
  • Cuts
  • Broken fingernails
Diagnosing finger pain 
If you have a cut or growth on your finger, your doctor may be able to diagnose the condition based on a physical examination alone. If you have pain when using your fingers and there’s no obvious cause, more information will be needed.

Your doctor will ask questions about your medical history, the medications you take, and your occupation. Using this information, your doctor can decide which tests are necessary for a proper diagnosis.

Common tests for diagnosing finger pain include blood tests and imaging tests, such as x-rays.

An X-ray can show any fractures and abnormal growths within the finger. If an x-ray isn’t enough to determine a diagnosis, your doctor may order additional imaging tests or a nerve study. A nerve study looks for nerve damage or nerve dysfunction.
