Treatment for baseball finger includes:

• Rest the hand
• Apply a cold compress:
• Wrap ice in a moist hand towel. Do not apply ice directly to the skin.
• Apply for 20-30 minutes, every 1-2 hours, for the first few days.
• Elevation of the hand above the heart
• Baseball finger splint

The splint holds the finger in the proper position, which allows the tendon or bone to scar back in place. The splint should be applied continuously for 6-8 weeks.
