What Should I Do If My Finger Gets Squeezed by a Door?

If the finger is squeezed by a door and it's not particularly serious with only a small amount of blood stasis, it can be treated with ice packs. If it's severe, it's necessary to go to the hospital for debridement, even nail removal, to thoroughly remove foreign objects and bacteria inside. Antibiotics should also be taken to prevent infection. Generally, symptoms of pain and swelling can be relieved after a week.

1. After the finger is injured, ice packs can be used for treatment to reduce the severity, avoid local swelling and pain, and prevent local blood stasis after the injury. Ice packs can also provide a certain analgesic effect.

2. If there is local bleeding after the finger is squeezed by the door, it can be rinsed with saline solution or applied to the wound area to prevent infection and swelling.

3. If there is severe damage or local tearing injury to the finger that prevents normal movement, splint fixation can be used to improve the condition and prevent joint dislocation or severe muscle and ligament injuries. Use a bandage or other items to hang the hand in front of the chest and regularly go to the hospital for follow-up.

4. If the hand is severely injured, finger movement is abnormal, or there is a serious fracture, it's necessary to go to the hospital for examination promptly to improve the condition.
