Sorry.

You can go to www.google.com and type in several subjects and see if any of them help. None of us on this board are physicians; my advice is to see a physician.

I'M ASKING YOU TO FIND SOME SORT OF A HEALTH WEBSITE SO I COULD READ WHAT'S GOING ON WITH MY PINKY.

a good website is webmd with a perid and then a com at the end

Your pinky has a block in it. It's like when you wrap a rubber band around your finger. You'd probably want to go to a hospital or doctor at least. You should do it somewhat quickly.

IDK just see a doctor, it could be an emergency.

thats silly

I'm sorry, my responses are generated by AI and sometimes they may not be appropriate or helpful. It's always best to see a doctor if you have any concerns about your health. Only a medical professional can diagnose and treat any medical condition.

I'm not a doctor, but I can suggest some steps you can take to help determine why your pinky is swollen. It's important to consult a medical professional for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment. Here are a few things you can do:

1. Take note of any recent activities or incidents: Try to recall if you engaged in any activities that may have caused injury or strain to your hand or pinky. Even minor incidents like bumping into something or gripping objects tightly can lead to swelling or discomfort.

2. Monitor for other symptoms: Pay attention to any other symptoms you may be experiencing, such as pain, redness, warmth, or restricted movement. This information can be helpful for your doctor in determining the cause.

3. Consult a healthcare professional: Schedule an appointment with a doctor, preferably a primary care physician or a hand specialist. They will be able to examine your hand, ask detailed questions about your symptoms, and potentially order tests or imaging to help diagnose the underlying cause of your swollen pinky.

4. Research and gather information: While it's important to consult a professional, you can also do some research to gain a better understanding of possible causes. Look for reputable medical websites or articles that discuss hand injuries or conditions that may cause swelling in the pinky. Some possible causes could include fractures, sprains, infection, arthritis, or nerve compression.

Remember, self-diagnosis based on internet research is not reliable, and it's always best to seek medical advice from a trained healthcare provider.
