I broke the metacarpal under my right little finger years ago and it healed fine but it aches as I do weights (and in cold/damp weather but that's a different issue. Any suggestions for what I might do to protect it and reduce the strain on it when I use the weight machine?

would it help to tape the finger with the old injury to the one next to it?0

I've done a bit more searching and found it's called "the boxer's fracture."0
