If you can make a fist and open your hand all the way back up, with maybe some small but not excruciating pain, there's probably no major break. You could have anywhere from a severe sprain to a small chip in the bone called an avulsion fracture. It takes a long time, weeks even, to heel but for that you can wrap your finger up in tape at night to help reduce the swelling (iceing helps too). If the pain is too bad to open and close your fist, even after a couple of days...see a doctor, preferably an orthopedic hand specialist.
dont worry let it heal by itself
GO TO THE HOSPITAL
try putting an ice pack on them.
Just keep up what you are doing and ice them. The swelling will go down eventually. If you think they are broken, seek medical attention.
Go to the Dr!!!!!... DUHH SWEETIE!!!
You have probably broken your fingers go to the Doctor. Until then continue to ice, and take ibuprofen.
