Ring finger tip joint is swelling

2017-07-19 21:37:11
I got hit very hard while playing basketball on the end on my ring finger and it is swelling. At first there was slight bleeding under the nail but it had now gone. The swelling has lasted about 2 weeks now and is not going at all. It hurts when I try to touch it and I cannot bend the part as much anymore
