I hurt my thumb earlier today and now it’s swollen and bruised. It hurts to move and bend it properly. I’m not sure if it’s just a bad jam/sprain or something more serious.

Has anyone dealt with something similar? Did it heal on its own or should I get it checked/X-rayed?

Im worried abt the black tissue of the wound

Do these seem infected? They are healing very slowly.

A cinderblock fell on my finger exactly 1 month ago and the ruptured blood vessels (i assume that’s what they are) are still there… when is this supposed to go away?
