A member asked:

I punched a wall, and my hand has been swollen for 5 days. it hurts bad to move my pinky but the other fingers are fine. what should i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See your doctor: Punching a hard object can cause something called a "Boxer's Fracture", which is a fracture of the bone in between the wrist and the pink finger. Boxer's fracture is diagnosed by a physician and via an Xray and treated a splint or a cast.
