unable to curb finger much

Hello

Today is second day of my finger saga and now I am unable to curl my left index finger. It starts hurting substantially. The pain seems to be coming from the A2,C1 area. Yesterday was when I got hurt and I posted it here [climbinginjuries.com]

There is no swelling or redness anywhere on the finger far as I can tell by looking at it. I am able to type on keyboard just fine. I squeeze that finger in all places using my right hand and there is no pain. If I dont curl there is no pain.

Please help...

Ice the finger 3-5 times a day in an ice bath and do gentle range of motion (curling and uncurling as much as you can without it hurting too much or making the pain worse).

Thanks so much for your advice. Really appreciate it.

I am back to climbing like I was earlier. Took three weeks of complete rest. No easy climbing or just traversing, nothing, just rest from climbing.

Good job! Rest is hard, but so important.
