Fingerings placed to the left of note heads can sometimes look too close to previous note heads. It is possible to use the extra-spacing-width property to fix this:

\version "2.24"

\paper {
  indent = #0
  ragged-right = ##t
}

\relative c'' {
  \set fingeringOrientations = #'(left)
  c4 c c <cis-3>
  \break
  c4 c c
  <cis \tweak Fingering.extra-spacing-width #'(-1 . 0) -3>
}
