My pointer finger and middle finger knuckle is in pain. when i slightly bend them or even when a move my wrist. i was punching my bag not to long ago?

Contusion: Sounds like probably a contusion and/or sprain. Rest, ice, and elevate the fingers, and of course avoid the punching bag until you improve. If pain is severe or persists, then of course see a physician to have x-rays done.
