Swollen and pain in middle finger for a month after bowling?

Suspect a sprain...: If it is in the middle joint of your middle finger (that was in the bowling ball, ) it is probably sprained. If that is what, in fact, it is, expect it to be swollen and sore for a number of months; perhaps more than a year, so be patient...It should slowly improve.
