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?

My best guess is to get some gloves you can cinch up real tight and see how that goes.0

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
