Not sure what your: question is. Pain and swelling are common reactions to injury. If it's particularly painful, you can take an OTC pain medication, apply ice for 15-20 minutes a few times a day, and elevate the hand to minimize swelling. What you're seeing may be a blood blister, a small collection of blood under the skin.
