One week ago i had something (fan to be exact) fall off a cabinet in my home. I tried to catch it from falling however i got hit in my left hand (pinkie side) pretty hard. It left an immediate (small) indentation & scratch in the skin and bruised immediately. I have been icing it to keep the swelling down and keeping it wrapped in an ace bandage. The bruise is currently yellow in the center and light purple.
I currently do not have any health insurance therefore i have not been to the doctor to have it looked at. I have never broken any other bones except for a toe in my lifetime. Im starting to get a bit worried because i haven't been able to make a fist since it happened however i can move my hand around and used by thumb, index sand middle finger, still have a lump in the 5th metacarpal bone, tender to the touch. I have also been experiencing numbness and cold fingers in my left hand. And yesterday i had what i can only describe as a muscle spasm in my pinkie finger and pain radiating into my forearm.
Can someone tell me is what could be wrong and is it to late to do anything?
Thank you
