Thank you for your question! There are a number of different conditions that can result in a finger that is crooked at its end, including mallet finger. I suggest that you see your general practitioner and ask for a referral to a hand surgeon who can assess what the problem is and advise you of your options. X-rays may be helpful in making a diagnosis and determining the best treatment approach. For more information about hand conditions please click here.
