"Oh, it looks great," the doctor quips. 

"You think that looks great?" the Skims founder responded. 

"The, like, tip broke off," Kardashian says in the clip as a photo of her X-ray is displayed on screen. 

"It was, like, more painful than childbirth."

In March, when she and son Saint West attended a Los Angeles Lakers game together, she was photographed with two bandages wrapped around her middle and pointer fingers. 

Also in March, Kardashian did an Instagram reel for her skin care company Skkn by Kim, revealing the products she kept inside her bag, which included an interesting array of items, such as a hair clip, lip products, gum, sunglasses and a digital camera. 

For most of the video, she used her non-injured hand to display the products.
