- Finger Jam
"Jammed Finger" is a term that refers to the many injuries of the ligaments and soft tissue around the small joints of the fingers. Jammed fingers are very common in ball handling sports or activities where there is a high degree of catching objects.
Finger jams occur when a blunt force is applied to a joint of the finger. The force is generally directly into the tip of the finger and combined with hyperextension of the joint. Ligaments and other soft tissue surrounding the joint are stretched or torn resulting in significant pain. Swelling, bruising, and loss of motion typically accompanies the pain.
KT Tape can help stabilize the joint without locking it down, allowing for comfort and promoting healing to occur more rapidly. It is important to diagnose the sprain so that fractures or dislocations can be ruled out or treated effectively. Failure to do so could result in loss of movement or chronic pain. Rest, ice, and NSAIDs can be very helpful in treating both the inflammation and the pain. If pain does not subside within the first 12 hours and a medical professional has not been consulted, see a clinician to properly diagnose the sprain and identify any fractures or dislocations.

These tutorials and the KT product really helps my joint pain! I liken it to an Ace bandage with much more flexibility in use. I supports that well.
Thanks!! I utilize my hands a lot in my job in retail, and the KT helps tremendously!!! No more soreness and aches! :)
Perfect. Works like a charm. Thank you.
Yes you can.
Thanks for sharing. However I jammed my lower knuckle do you have any suggestions on how to wrap that joint?
Thank you I just jammed my finger like 8 hours ago now I know what to do
Worked on my biceps. Amazingly
Can you guys please make a video for catcher (baseball) thumb injuries??
Thanks! but "seek care if pain lasts more than 12 hours"? Who heals from a jammed finger in half a day? wolverine? lol When I get mine from bball, they last about a week. I m hoping KT tape, rest and massages will help reduce it a day or two this time.
🤣🤣 “wolverine” 😂🤣😂😭😭🤣😂💀
Yes.
No.
MAYBE.
I recently sprained my toe, and I was wondering if you can you use it for a sprained toe.
I have a strain on my right thumb and pointer finger. How should i tape this injury please?

It sounds like you might need a customized application. Visit our website and go to our "ask an expert" forum to get some professional advice.
Night and day difference between this and a splint. This is so much better

Can this help increase blood flow to help with Raynaud's disease? Some ppl with Raynaud's use muscle tape but there is no tutorial for how. All I want is to be able to use my laptop for work without my fingers freezes to the point they hurt!
Can I use this on any finger?
Q what to DO for last joint if ring finger?
is it ok if i play basketball with this tape?
Question,how long with this last..
how to take it
got to get one of that type of tape.
You can get it on amazon just look up kt tape
Great video. This may be a stupid question. Is tape necessary if the finger jam is not too painful. For instance, if there's a little swelling and stiffness, but the pain is bearable. Can one do without the tape and let it heal naturally? Thanks!
ofc! k tape can just help the stability of the finger especially if you are gonna continue using it after hurting it
How long is one full strip? Thanks for the great tutorial
10 inches
How much?
I jumped of my stairs and i landed on it and when it happened i heard it crack i think i broke the tip of my finger
I am a catcher and my thumb gets jammed will this help?
Also my problem
If you are talking about your catching hand, usually the common thumb injury is hyper extension. Like when you get "thumbed" from a foul tip. I am a kt therapist and also a catcher. The best thing I have found for thumb protection is the "Catchers Thumb" from Xan Barksdale. It's a brace you wear under the glove and it is amazing! Check out catching 101.
I want for small finger
isn't it a lot better (and less expensive or wasteful of good Kinesiotape) to use normal tape for this method? cause you barely use a stretch anyways...
No cause normal tape doesn't heat and heat is really good for these joints. I know what I am talking about because I have EDS and tape my fingers daily.
I've jammed a couple fingers in sports and they are still swollen, can't a doctor just remove the synovial fluid form my knuckle with a needle or something?
NOPE I DIDN'T JAM MY FINGER I JUST WANT TO USE THE MUSCLE TAPE FOR DESIGNING HAHAHA CAUSE IT LOOKS GOOD AT MY BODY.
Why is this do so nervous? Is there something he isn't telling us?
