The best advice I can give you is: under no circumstances listen to Scouse's, Cofe's or my advice.
Inside, outside or within your joint?
its hard to place cos its a dull thing not a sharp pain
Try to avoid testing it all the time.
However, any pain when twisting the finger or pinching with it straightened?
If it doesn't scream A2 (i.e. pain in the base of the finger somewhere) I'm going to be on a collateral strain. I've been finding mummification taping (rather than the old skool cross taping) to work pretty well although its f*cking annoying.
I just wrote a massive reply then scrapped it! I'll phone you word, got some icing tips that do work. As long as you practice what I preach and not practice what I practice you should be fine!

Is taping it to another finger a good idea then or bullshit?
stopped climbing ten days, regained full movement of the finger, went climbing today, was climbing good, everything kosher, got bored and tried a silly dyno to a big jug,
Going to way in my finger as well!Like Dave never had a finger injury ever.Last week tweaked 1st finger (one after thumb)Pain is on the sides at the base of the finger (i.e near the knuckle) when squeezed.No pain underneath the finger, so fairly sure it is not the tendon.Full range of movement, little bit of pain on the top and sides of base of finger on squeezing ballIs this a pulley prob? How do you tape for this ( Iwill rest it first)? Thanks for any advice.
