The majority of finger injuries can be dealt with conservative care and splints. However, if the bone presents an abnormal angularity or if it is displaced, one may need surgery and pins to hold the bones in place. Causes Fractures of the fingers occur when the finger or hands hit a solid object. Fractures are most common at the base of the little finger boxer s fracture . Nerve injuries occur as a result of trauma, compression or over stretching. Nerves send impulses to the brain about sensation and also play an important role in finger movement.

The prevention paradox was first formally described in 1981 ref Rose G., Strategy of prevention lessons from cardiovascular disease , Brit Med J 1981 282 1847 51. ref by the epidemiology epidemiologist Geoffrey Rose . The prevention paradox describes the seemingly contradictory situation where the majority of cases of a disease come from a population at low or moderate risk of that disease, and only a minority of cases come from the high risk population. This is because the number of people at high risk is small. For example Rose describes the case of Down Syndrome where maternal age is a risk factor. Yet, most cases of Down Syndrome will be born to younger, low risk mothers this is true at least in populations where most women have children at a younger age . This situation is paradoxical because it is common and logical to equate high risk populations with making up the majority of the burden of disease . Another example could be seen in terms of reducing overall alcohol problems in a population. Although less serious, most alcohol problems are not found amongst dependent drinkers. By achieving a small reduction in alcohol misuse amongst a far larger group of risky drinkers with less serious problems, this will result in a greater societal gain than reducing problems amongst a smaller number of dependent drinkers. The prevention paradox is a problem encountered when governments or organisations attempt to introduce a large scale Health intervention intervention to improve health. Many interventions that aim to improve health have relatively small influences and perceptible benefits on the health of most people. Therefore for one person to benefit, many people have to change their behaviour even though they receive no benefit, or even suffer, from the change.
