Swami gives us the rundown of treatments for common finger dislocations from CorePendium.
Do you recommend a post-reduction x-ray?
I don't always get a post-reduction film but if I've got suspicion for fracture I do. I often don't get a pre-reduction film. I'll give it a shot at relocation and if there's any resistance, then I'll get an x-ray
Thank you, Dr. Swaminathan!
