I am no Doc, but sounds like you should ice it for a while, if it starts to
swell see a Doctor at once. can you bend the finger does it hurt if you
touch it, you probably got lucky.. if it hasnt swollen yet you may not have
broken it, You may have some nerve and flesh damage, brused bone.. so ice it
good and see what happens in a couple days, and DO NOT USE THE HAND &
FINGERS AT ALL, REST..
