I injured the MCP joint on my left index finger about 9 months ago. It doesn't stop me from climbing but is taking a lot longer to heal than I thought. It's not one of the regular climbing finger injuries so am struggling to find any advice on the web. Hopefully someone here can help.

I think it was caused as a result of campussing. There was no audible popping or any great trauma at the time. It has improved to the point where I don't have pain when pulling down but there is discomfort when I circle the finger and lift it up on its own with my hand down flat. It will always click each time I do it with some moderate pain.

Thanks
