Official Title: Treatment of Proximal Interphalangeal Joint Injuries. Comparative Study of the Clinical Efficiency and Cost of Syndactyly Treatment Versus Immobilization and Compression Versus no Compression

Brief Summary: Proximal interphalangeal joint injuries of the fingers may be treated in various ways and no treatment has been shown to be superior. The investigators wish to study the effectiveness of syndactyly versus digital splint when comparing joint mobility. The investigators also wish to study the effectiveness of finger compression in reducing edema and therefore allowing a greater arc of motion.
