What Causes Swelling Under Small Finger?

I was working out on Wednesday and noticed that might right palm underneath the ring and pinky finger started swelling up. I never felt any pain in the area, it just started to swell. I iced it that night and the next day the swelling went down and it got a little discolored. I thought that maybe I broke a blood vessell. Now my pinky and middle finger are a little numb. There is still no pain in the area. Should I be concerned?
