my finger
back in like, May, i was playing around with my brother and somehow we got into some fight and he like punched me and hit my hand and it went numb and hurt really bad, so i iced it and that was pretty much it, i never iced it again. it hurt to bend like at my knuckle for a while but then went away. however, now, in july, sometimes it still hurts whenever i like lean on my hand or bend my finger in some weird way (in the knuckle). i don't know what happened, it never swelled up or anything. i was thinking it got jammed but would it still hurt like over a month later? if anyone had anything similar happen to them it would help a lot. i know none of you are doctors obviously so if you think i should see one just tell me ok thankss :)

the obvious answer would be to say you broke your finger when this occured. this isn't serious people break fingers/toes often but if it isn't treated the bones are likely to grow funny which is resulting in the pain you have now.
i understand your doubt since it didn't sweel but mine didnt swell either, here is my story:
in gym class i tried to catch a ball and my finger was bent the wrong way, it went numb and hurt so bad so i went to the nurse she sent me to the doctor. it wasn't a situation where i would think i broke mybone since all i di was bend it wrong and it stopped hurting by the time i got to the docs. i was laughing and smiling and it hurt a little when i bent it but nothing big. like you, i just figured i jammed it. well the x-ray came back and i had SHATTERED the growth plate in my finger and if i hadn't gotten a cast it was likey my growth plate would mend back together deformed and promblems would erupt. now i don't think you shattered your growth plate but a simple break isn't out of the realm of possibility.
but it healed like all wounds do. and although your bone grew back differantly there is not much to do now unless it is truly painful im sure there is some sort of corrective surgery. you'll be fine though, it's just something you'll have to live through.
hope i helped =]

I think you should see a doctor. Your hand could use an X-ray just to determine that nothing bad happened to it. Do your parents know about the fight and the injury? If not, you should tell them. If so, you should tell them that it's still hurting. You probably sprained your fingers which would feel like jamming them but more intense. To be on the safe side, go checked it out. The doctor might give you some medicine to make the pain go away.
