Can I still reattach my broken finger?

Generally speaking, it is possible, but it depends on the situation at the time. and the preservation of severed finger limbs.

Generally speaking, severed fingers can be reattached through replantation. Preserve severed fingers in a timely, scientific and reasonable manner.

Methods for preserving finger bodies for emergency diagnosis:

Wrap the severed finger with clean cotton cloth and store it. If the temperature is high in summer, ice cubes need to be placed around it through cotton cloth to avoid The severed finger body comes into direct contact with the ice, causing frostbite. If it is winter, you can wrap the severed finger directly and send it to the nearest hand surgery hospital for treatment. The optimal treatment time for replantation of a severed finger is 6-8 hours. If the condition of the finger is acceptable, replantation can be tried after extending it to 10 hours.

Replantation:

Generally refers to the re-anastomosis of bones, blood vessels, nerves, tendons, and skin of a completely or incompletely severed finger within 8 hours. Reconstruction refers to surgery to restore part of the original function.

Reconstruction:

To put it simply, it is to reconstruct a normal finger through surgery. Finger reconstruction has gone through flap reconstruction, toe transplantation, and currently total reconstruction. The difference is that skin flap reconstruction has no function and simply wraps the injured finger; toe transplantation is to take a toe from the foot and transplant it to the injured hand; full-shape reconstruction is based on toe transplantation An extended and developed new technology. Before transplantation, the shape (bone and nail flap) is modified to make it nearly consistent with the appearance of a normal finger and the shape of the phalanges. At the same time, blood vessels, nerves, tendons, and Kirschner wires are anastomosed under a microscope. The bone connection part is fixed, and after post-rehabilitation exercises, the reconstructed fingers can have normal grip, feeling and perception.
