A member asked:
Should i get a finger xray? i hit my finger with a hammer on the weekend. it is still swollen and hurts to touch or move but doesn't look bent. there is blood under 1/3 of the nail.

See doctor: Blood under nail can be drained which can prevent nails from falling off . You can buddy strap the finger and see doctor who can access if X ray is needed.
