Thanks for using the forum.

It sounds like you may have an injury that is causing your discomfort. Is the color good, is the nail bed pink or is it pale or bluish? I am asking to evaluate your circulation. It is possible to have an injury and swelling that can affect the circulation. I would recommend you have the injury checked out to make sure that there is no further damage being done.

I hope this helps
