busted thumb anybody?

has anyone ever busted their thumb or had a stener lesion before? Im pretty sure thats what it is and its gotta be busted. I dont go to the doctor, but im thinking i may need surgery if I tore this fucker that bad. I might send some xrays to a hand surgeon, from what i read it needs to be corrected within 3 weeks or im screwed. Im thinking im gonna go to work early and take some views from the side and compare to my normal thumb. i feel like im going to have a panic attack. fuck.
here is the normal thumb  bad thumb its still huge after a week and pain has increased not decreased. to me it looks like it is seperating itself from the palm of my hand. fuck
here's an xray of it here is a lighter version... notice the soft tissue swelling is horrendous 
just another view...
if anyone has ever had one of these id appreciate some input on how its healed. with or without surgery. it is my dominate hand.

Just go see a fucking doctor. This isn't some shitty digit. If someone was as concerned about their pet as you are of yourself do you think you would recommend them NOT consult you, the professional?

a general practitioner isnt going to know anything. They probably cant even radiograph it properly. I fuck i guess ill send them to a hand surgeon and explain why im not going through a regular doctor. I can have it put in a hard cast if it will just heal non surgically like my other hand bone breaks have. What worries me is its gotten worse, not better. I've had it in a brace and treated it with a laser, and no difference. I dont have insurance, and i have thousands for hand surgery, ya know

damng that looks a bit painful! if its been soar for a week and has swolen that much then yeah there is probably a fracture or crack in the bone or something.
i'm obviously not a doctor but maybe try to get a cast put on it or one of those hand brace things that keep the hand in the right position for it to heal properly
maybe ask someone at work to have a look at it, they might be able to help

Sprinkles that looks more dislocated than broken but yeah go to see a doctor on that one you'll probably end up in a cast either way. Or you could be a hardass and walk it off.

Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

Oh no now I'll have to give myself handjobs .

When I fucked up my arm last year it took me 3 weeks to get into a Dr that knew what they were talking about. Maybe check out places that do physical therapy

And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Yeah that was my guess. What I don't get is why there is no mention of any medical advice received so far. Who did the x-rays?
