Finger hurts to bend

2017-06-20 13:53:02
My finger was hit last week and I have been icing and I buddy taped it, but it still is stiff and throbbing. I can't touch my fingertip to my palm. When I try it feels like I'm pulling something at the joint. It has been swollen since the injury. What could this be? It only hurts when I try to use it. It is from my middle joint to the top joint.
