What Could Swollen Bruises On Hand Suggest?
I hit a wall a few days ago, my hand swelled up and was bruised, the worst of it was on the bottom knuckle of my middle finger. it is still slightly swollen and bruised, and now when I try to move it there is a creaking noise and a slight grindinglike sensation. Should I be concerned, or will it heal on its own?

Hello,Thanks for your query. After going through your query I came to know that you hit a wall a few days ago, your hand swelled up and was bruised, the worst of it was on the bottom knuckle of your middle finger. It is still slightly swollen and bruised, and now when you try to move it there is a creaking noise and a slight grinding like sensation. I think you shouldgot your x-ray of hand done to rule out fracture, because I suspect fracture as there is a creaking noise and a slight grinding like sensation. I do hope that you have found something helpful. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries
