Hi Eunoia,
Thank you for your question. A smashed finger can cause some pain. sometimes the pressure under the nail needs to be relieved, but only a doctor can make this determination. You may need to call your general practitioner's office and speak with the nurse. The nurse will tell you if he/she thinks you need to be seen by the doctor.

Good luck, and let us know how you're doing.
