Fingers are now blue, swollen and i can't bend it. does that mean i possibly cracked or broke it?

Maybe?: You didn't say if you had an injury. If you did injure your hand and they are blue and swollen, then you need to get this checked out as you could have a fracture. If you have not had an injury and your fingers are blue and swollen I am even more concerned about what could cause this and you definitely need to get it checked out.
