Broken finger bone

Hello,
My son broke a finger bone playing soccer. He chipped off the edge of
the first thumb digit at the joint between it and the second digit. This
happened three days ago and we discovered it on X-ray yesterday. Arnica
helped and Ledum has helped the bruising. He can use it. He has not
seen an orthopedic doctor yet. Are there any remedies that might help
reabsorb this fragment or will the body take care of it? I am hesitating
to give him Symphytum yet since the fragment is unattached.
Thanks,
Laura Peterson
