Dislocated middle joint on index finger
It's been 2 weeks since I dislocated my finger. Is it natural that I can't bend that joint past a certain point without it hurting? If that is expected this early during the healing process, by when should I be able to bend it painlessly?

Main problem with any finger injury is stiffness. Movements will improve until 6 to 8 weeks. If you got x rays post it here. Usually people get painless movements gradually after 4 weeks from injury
