What Does A Bruise On The Finger Indicate?

Thank you sir. I am a 64 year old woman and in great health. I got a massage yesterday (is all I can think of), and today woke up with one finger of mine kind of black and blue like it's either not getting blood to it, or bruised. There is no pain though, and I do not remember anything hurting at all yesterday. Any thoughts?
I know it sounds silly. I DO NOT WANT TO PAY FOR THIS SERVICE, I THOUGHT I WAS ON WEBMD AND IT WAS FREE. PLEASE DO NOT GIVE ME ANY ANSWER. THANK YOU.

Hi,
Thanks for contacting HCM.

If it is small bruice without pain and not increasing in size, than not to worry much. It will heal on it's own. If whole finger is kind of black / blue with throbbing pain then you can consult surgeon to get investigated.

Thanks.
