Broken or Bruised?

I have a question. Yesterday I sparred with a friend of mine and he kicked and it landed on top of my finger. I had a lot of pain on that moment, but I could still move it. Now it has become swollen and a little bit blue and it’s hard to make a fist with it and I can’t fully stretch it. I think it’s bruised but I don’t know for sure what do you think?

Step 1- ICE----on 20 minutes, off 20 minutes
Step 2- Go to a doctor as soon as possible, maybe it’s just badly bruised but it’s probably sprained.

Dit Da Jow, and see if the bruising goes down.
If it doesnt then go see a doctor.

I went to see a doctor today and I was sent to the hospital for an X-ray photo. It’s just badly bruised so I’m lucky :slight_smile:

That’s good. Broken fingers take along time to heal completely!

D@mn Straight.

Jus’ play it cool for a while, till there’s no soreness, stiffness, twinges, anything that feels not cool or strange.

Fudge a finger or knuckle up, it’s hell to deal with.
