It's very hard: to make a diagnosis without seeing your hand and getting a little more information. if it doesn't get better on its own you should see a physician or schedule a virtual consultation so someone can at least see a picture of your finger.

Deep cut on finger while cooking one week ago (no stitches). Finger is still swollen, red (in the area of the cut) and hand is throbbing. When hand is elevated it feels better than when hand is put down, it feels then heavy and aching. What to do?
