Distal Phalanx 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. A tuft fracture is frequently an open fracture due to its common association with injury to the surrounding soft tissues or nail bed.
Distal Phalanx Fractures The distal phalanx is the most commonly fractured bone of the hand. 5. The mechanism of fracture is usually a crush injury. On clinical examination, the fingertip is swollen and painful. Extensive soft tissue damage to the finger pulp with associated nail bed laceration may occur.

ICD-10 code S52. 5 for Fracture of lower end of radius is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes .
The tuft is the end of the last bone in the finger. Symptoms of a tuft fracture include pain and swelling in the fingertip. The pain and swelling usually decrease after a day or two, but the fingertip will still be tender for several weeks if you bump it.
A tuft fracture refers to a fracture or break through the very tip of the bone that sits under the fingernail (distal phalanx). This can occur with a crush injury, such as when a finger is accidently caught in a closing door. This is a very common injury and generally heals very well.
