So I was dumb and punched a door about 4-5 weeks ago. I thought I had broken my hand because my middle knuckle swelled up and it basically covered my ring finger knuckle. I went to the Dr. and after x-rays, they said it wasn't broken and said it is probably just bruised and gave me a splint that I used for about 3 days...



Since then, the swelling has gone down and the pain has mostly left. My knuckle is still tight and there is some pain if it hits anything or if i try to pop it. But that isn't what concerns me. My knuckle is still significantly larger when compared to the same knuckle on my other hand. Plus, it feel like things are moving around and crunches if you press on it with your finger. I figured it would have healed by now if it were just a bruise so the crunching and movement in my knuckle along with the periodic pain whenever pressure is on it has me worried that I may have done more damage then I thought.
