Cruisin'ForABruisin': The finger is sore. Feels kind of "pinched" and the back of it has a small "bruise." That sounds "hurt" to me, either subjectively, objectively or both.You used to shoveling?Did you wear gloves? Bang it accidentally? What if any medications do you take, including aspirin or Motrin?? If it's not better in a week or starts getting worse, let us hear about it again. And let hubby to do the shoveling.
