I got hit in the hands with a hockey stick and it caused alot of bruising and swelling. After getting an X-ray it showed no fractures. My problem is with my right ring finger. It's sensitive to touch or push on just at the top of the front side just below my nail. If I bend it a pain close to a small electric shock goes through my finger and it is slightly numb in that area as well. the pain is quite bad. It's been 2 weeks since the injury.
