A member asked:

I hit the tip of my pinky finger two days ago put a bandaid now is bleeding, is dark red under the nail, and smells like rotten meat, bit swoll too much pain at first, but now just at touch. the finger has sensitivity. i dont think the bone is broke?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Blood under a fingernail is painful,throbbing & often has to be let out by drilling a hole in the nail. Swelling of the finger tip is suspicious of a fracture or infection. I recommend being seen in the ER where X-Ray ,accurate diagnosis and treatments are promptly available.
