Bruise on hand help please?

i got angry at my game (i am stopping that now though) and i tryed to punch the pillow that was beside me, but it fell and i hit my middle and 2nd last knuckle on a metal chair. it has a cut on it and a bruise is forming underneath and it hurts. the cut has scabbed already (in the first minute that it happend) but i just want to know if i need to really worry about it. is itsomething i need to ask a doctor about? please help
k it i would not think that is broken cuz i can move it (with slight pain around the area) but it is not purple or swollen anymore, and it is just a scab with a slight bruise that you can’t see. thanks for you help guys :)
but one more thing. did i pop the vein there? i just want to know that, and if i did, what do i do about that?

if you scabed right away thatas good- means you wont bleed to death. Youll be fine- go put some ice on it

if you get a bruise/s on your knuckle/s then your knuckle/s will be swollen up for the rest of your life. not like blown up just larger but i would see a docter just to make sure that you didnt do anything to any bones.

Elevate our hand above your heart – just lay it on your chest – and ice it for 10 minutes every hour. This will help stop the swelling. You could have broken your knuckles, but you will know it if you can’t move them or use your hand without bad pain. Good luck!
