    Might not be a bad idea

    if you're in the UK call NHS direct and ask their advice

    if you're not in the UK, can you call your doctor and ask for advice?

    Did they give you instructions for redoing the splint on your own? It could just be a bit tight.

    I do not want to sound unsympathetic I scrolled backwards and forwards about 4 or 5 times reading your post....but really....this is the internet not a doctor?

    If you feel that you have a medical situation then go ask your doctor?

    Go to your doctor and flip him off with the broken finger and say, "You ****ed up!"

    While I'd like to say "be thankful for small mercies", unless they gave you a local anaesthetic, it sounds like the strapping may be too right. Be to be safe than sorry .... get it checked out.
