Following an injury or even amputation of your finger, do the following as you are preparing to see your doctor:

  • Clean the injury with sterile Saline or clean water and cover it with a lightly compressive sterile dressing to minimize bleeding and protect the injured finger.
  • Elevate the injured hand to minimize swelling.
  • Immobilize the affected hand with a short splint.

Finger amputation:

If your fingertip is completely cut off, do the following:

  • Gently clean the amputated part with water or, if possible, with sterile saline solution.
  • Cover it in a moistened gauze.
  • Place it in a watertight bag.
  • Place the bag in a sealed container filled with a mixtre of water and ice.
  • Do not allow the amputated part to be in direct contact with ice. You could damage it further.
  • Bring the amputated part with you to the emergency room and maintain control over it until the doctor is able to evaluate you.
