Suggest Treatment For Swollen And Bruised Finger

I hurt my finger in approximately late June early July. I bent it backwards really hard. It was bruised and swollen for about a week. Now I only experience dull aching and sometimes sharp radiant pain throughout the length of my thumb when the weather begins to change and when I injiury it in a minor way say as bump it or smack it against something. I don t know what I did to it and I don t undestand why it is still hurting.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the soft tissue injury with fracture part then it may cause the pain for few weeks to some months, if it is not being tested then better to get done the x-ray test till then NSAID can be taken or splint can be applied hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
