Answers:
If you don't have 100% range of motion, that is, you can't bend it completely as you normally can, it could be broken!.

Have someone else compare your finger to the same finger on your other hand!. If it's deformed, swollen or especially doesn't have full movement, I would go see a doctor!.

If the cartilage between the bones gets damaged, twisted or stretched out of place, it probably needs a splint for a week or more!. Better to take care of it now, then have a messed up finger forever!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

there's a possibility, just keep some ice on it untill the swelling goes down!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
