Michelle G. asked:My 6 yr old daughter dropped a bowling ball on her hand on Monday. Her ring finger is badly bruised but she can move it. I am more concerned about the pinky finger as the joint where it meets the palm is awkwardly protruding. I am worried she disclocated it or broke it. She can move the finger, but it’s just weird. Is there a pediatric hand doctor in Weston? Is that where I should go? I doubt the pediatrician can do anything but refer me to a specialist. I am open to any advice!Daniela M. replied:Dr Desimone team. They are the best. Located in town center http://www.draldesimone.com/
