Craig, 39, was taken to hospital today while the 22nd Bond movie, 'Quantum of Solace' was being shot at Pinewood Studios.
It is the second time in two weeks that Craig has been injured during filming. A week ago his face was cut and required eight stitches.
But after the injury to his hand in the morning he was back on set to resume filming in the afternoon.
'There was quite a lot of blood and it was decided he needed to go to hospital for emergency treatment,' explained a member of the Bond production team.
A spokesman for production company EON said that the actor was taken to see a doctor as 'a precaution'.
The accident is the latest in a spate of mishaps that have plagued the latest Bond film.
At the weekend a fire broke out and caused severe damage on an outdoor Bond set at Pinewood.
The 007 studio at Pinewood had been open for only a year after it had to be rebuilt after a previous fire destroyed a giant replica of Venice during filming of the last Bond film, 'Casino Royale'.
Two stunt men were hurt in separate car accidents while filming Quantum of Solace on location at in northern Italy in April.
British engineer Fraser Dunn, 29, crashed a £134,000 Aston Martin DBS into the water at Lake Garda in northern Italy.
During the same shoot an unnamed Greek stuntman suffered serious head injuries in a car crash.
