Broken Finger Picture

Complete list of fracture information

There are three bones in each of the four fingers. In the picture each type
of bone in the hand is shown in a different color. The end bones of the finger
is least likely to break as there is no place to put a lot of pressure on it.
However it is common to damage the joint below it. When there is a crack or
break in any of these twelve bones then you have a broken finger. There are
three common causes for a broken finger. These are slamming something with your
fist, having a hard object hit your fingers or catching yourself in a fall.
