    My favorite hobby is to play video games on my computer. I now have a no unuion fracture on my finger tip and i have no idea what to do. It hurts to press keys with the finger after about 30 mins. Is there anywhere i can go to get some sort finger cover made so i dont put stress on the broken part of my finger when i use it? The doc said it will probably be like this forever.

      yes!! they hurt a lot! it almost feels as if you can feel the fracture. I'm dealing with this now. I fractured my heel on May 25, 2022 and I'm still on crutches and with a soft boot. I'm fighting with the insurance company to approve the bone stimulator that my doctor prescribed.
      I'm so fed up and in so much pain!!
