If it still hurts after a few days, go to the hospital.

ouch! yeah I would get it checked, if it is swelling and you can't turn or move it, it might be fractured. Keep us posted and I hope you get better soon!

Did almost the same thing right before I started high school...broke my index finger right smack in the middle by the joint. Never batted down a pass from the front again.

Kids these days, batting the balls away instead of catching them for an interception.

Get some ice on that sucker.

Can you move it?

How big is the swelling?

Any hairline haemmorhages?
