A pieceof iron fell on my finger and it is swollen and painful with a red lump at the bottom. What is this?



Answers:
It is most likely a hematoma, i.e. a small pool of blood due to broken capillary vessels. Hematomas in tissues can cause swelling and pain. It will generally resolve as ecchymosis (or black & blue bruise). But if the pain is persistent or worsens and you have difficulty moving, you should go to your physician and make sure there is not an underlying fracture there, depending on how it was struck.

In baby talk it's called a bubu. Most probably it sounds like a blood clot.
Well, it's simply what it is - a swollen and painful finger with a red lump at the bottom. What is this? My suggestion is to see your doctor.
maybe it's a hematoma, but you should make sure it's not a fracture
it is called an injury
wrap it up with some kind of soothing cream and antiseptic if it was cut
Could be broken.
bad bruse, or a fracture, ice it, if not better in a few days go see a doctor
its hemroids i have them
Tomorrow you will wake up as Iron Man. Stay away from magnets.
Might be broken but it does sound infected. It doesn't matter what anyone says here, see a doctor.
In my experience in this I would say its a fracture.
Go have it looked at, you need a x-ray and a splint most likely.
The red lump is a blood blister. That may need to be drained. Put your finger on ice. You may have a broken finger too. Ice will help with the swelling, Tylenol, Motrin or aspirin will help with the pain. After 24 hours on ice you can start switching between cold & warm packs for your finger. If it gets worse or the pain gets unbearable go see your doctor.
its a mashed finger with a blood blister
frist you need to run cold water on it then put ice on it every day
an injury
IT COULD STILL HAVE A PIECE OF IRON IN THE FINGER AND IS INFECTED. IF IT DOESN'T GET BETTER GO SEE A DOCTOR TO CHECK IT. UNTIL THEM CLEAN IT OUT WITH PROXCIDE!!
TINA
this sounds more like a guessing game than a question.
blood blister where your blood went when smashed. take a couple pain pills for your age and weight don't pop the blister for a few days it will act as a cushion for it
You need to see a Dr. and probably he will give you a tetnus shot if you haven't had one in 10yrs.

I think you have an infection going on if this is red . Don't wait until it might spread to your blood stream, not to scare you.

Good luck!
Basic First Aid~~R.I.C.E: Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation. You probably have a blood blister on top of a badly bruised or possible broken finger. If it happened at work, file a Worker's Comp claim in the morning and go to the doctor. If not, you might still consider going to the doctor, but if you try not to use it much, ice it for 20min every hour, tape your fingers together before work tmrw, and keep it elevated above the level of your heart as often as possible to reduce swelling.
I don't know but it sounds like you should go see a doctor!!I hope that it's not anything really bad!! And like I said go see a doctor!!
