Distal phalanx fracture - undisplaced Fractures affecting the distal phalanx generally result from a crush injury, such as getting your fingertip caught in a door, or dropping a heavy weight on it. These injuries are often associated with injury to the nail bed or the nail, which may require surgery in itself.

A broken ankle is also known as an ankle "fracture." This means that one or more of the bones that make up the ankle joint are broken.
Distal phalanx fractures are usually nondisplaced or comminuted fractures. They classify into tuft (tip), shaft, or articular injuries. Tuft fractures usually result from a crushing mechanism such as hitting the tip of a finger with a hammer.
The distal phalanx of the finger is the distal or third of the three bones in each finger when counting from the hand to the tip of the finger. The distal phalanx has a joint just with the middle phalanx. On the tip of the phalanx is a bulbous tuft of bone that helps give the finger its rounded appearance.
Comminuted fractures Fractures of the distal phalanx are the most common fractures in the hand. Most frequently, the thumb, the middle finger, or somewhat less often, the index finger is injured. Common complications of these injuries are: altered sensibility (numbness, hyperesthesia, tenderness)

In ICD-10-CM a fracture not indicated as displaced or nondisplaced should be coded to displaced, and a fracture not designated as open or closed should be coded to closed. While the classification defaults to displaced for fractures, it is very important that complete documentation is encouraged.
Displaced fractures: A gap forms where the bone breaks. Often, this injury requires surgery to fix. Partial fractures: The break doesn't go all the way through the bone. Stress fractures: The bone gets a crack in it, which is sometimes tough to find with imaging.
Healing: This normally takes approximately 4-6 weeks to heal. finger to be a bit achy and swollen for a couple of months after this type of injury. splint or you can strap your fingers together for comfort. It is important to use the hand and keep the rest of the finger bending to stop it becoming stiff.
Distal tuft fractures Since there are few deforming forces about the distal phalanx, these fractures can usually be treated in a closed manner with simple splinting, closed reduction and splinting, or closed reduction and percutaneous fixation.
In adults, a closed fracture at the base of the distal phalanx is best treated by splinting the distal and middle phalanges with the distal interphalangeal joint extended for a minimum of 4 weeks.
