"Pain in my finger on my right hand has not been..."

About: Macclesfield District General Hospital / Accident and emergency

I got given a splint because my wrist hurts however the pain in my little finger is much more intense than that of the wrist which I explicitly stated on many occasions. I expected it to be strapped to the next finger as I personally think that the tendon or muscle has been damaged as there is lack of movement and flexibility within it. My perspective on the situation clearly must not have been either interpreted correctly or even acknowledged at all, and I don't understand why. If a patient complains of pain, that area should be assessed thoroughly and action should be taken
