A couple of days ago my friend and I decided to go sleding late at night but since the snow had turned to ice we went sleding VERY fast. We thought we were going to hit a tree so i put my hand down but it got caught in someones footprint in the snow and bent. My finger was not straight and it started to swell up about 20 min. after the accident and hurt REALLY bad. So i taped my pointer finger to it(since it was my middle finger) and let it be . Now, 2 days later, its still a little swollen,stif, and my whole finger and the part under your finger is still buised. How long is it going to take to heal? Is it a sprain?

sounds like a break, go to have it x-rayed and get a proper cast put on it, treat with ice, to reduce swelling and inflamation, if you can not move it and it is not straight chances are you broke it, don't put off going to the doctor, you don't want a bad break heal like that.
