Infection - knuckles

[Ami]

Bah, ive been punching the wall a few times, and my knuckles have really swelled upand a bit bloody. I can still move my hand okay, but would ice just be enough to chill the swelling or could there be more damage? They feel okay though.
thanks

It isimpossible to tell over the internet if you have done any damage to the structures of your hand. As you said, ice is effective for brusing and swelling, but it will not be effective against things like bone injuries.

If you apply ice, make sure its wrapped in a towel firsthen apply it for 10 minutes once an hour.

Take care

Be safe Ami, i have been punching alot througout my life and recently, i've broke my knuckles ALOT of times, and they're quite scarred now off brick walls and what not, just take care, if there is still bad pain whilst moving them after a day or two, they may be broken, just use them as little as possible and tape em' together.
