How Can A Wound On The Knuckle Be Treated?

I cut my knuckle (with a paring knife while cooking) - this happened on Monday; the cut appears closed but now the blood seems to have diffused (almost like a bruise) above and below the cut along my finger. Is this normal? Should I see someone about this or just let it work itself out?
