Yeah sore knuckles are not "man"'s area of expertise, but they can whine for hours about their butt crack and how sore their's is all the time. Oh and don't let them get started about their jaw or tonsils. I guess that's why man's known around the highway rest stops as "ben-gay"

Yes, thats normal. If you starts getting a red ring around it, like a bull's eye, see a doctor.

Some joint of mine always feels a little bit of discomfort.  But that's ok, as it reminds me to be cautious while active.  These little pains help keep me from experiencing major pain from injury.

No,as long as there's no pain,nothing's wrong.It sounds like an exostosis from your former fractures.That's an extra bony outgrowth from a site that has had new bone formation.\nGet an x-ray check to confirm this.

I wouldn't think so...like cracking your knuckles, it will show up as arthritis or something later.

Have you had an xray for this yet?  If not, I would definately recommend you get one.  It sounds like you have have done more than jam your finger.  There are a few different things that could be triggering your knuckle to swell months after the initial injury.  The most common would be a fracture.  There are other possibilities as well.  Does the finger continue to swell bigger or has it leveled out?  You may have a fragment floating around there irritating everything.  I would suggest you definately at least have it checked out, there is a possibility the swelling will go down, but do you really wanna risk the ring not fitting on your wedding day?  Make an appt with your family dr and KNOW what is going on.  Hope your finger feels better and Congratulations on the upcoming wedding!

Definitely sounds like nerve pain.  Sometimes, like in carpal tunnel, swelling around the nerves pinches them and causes pain and numbness.\n\nRest and warm compresses (over a longer period of time depending on how serious it is) will help if this is the case.  Look at your activity and see if you are overworking or injuring the wrist or hand.\n\nIf it doesn't go away after a few days or gets very painful and/or stays numb, see the doctor.  Serious nerve injuries might involve a special splint, therapy, or even surgery.\n\nSpeedy healing!

I'm no doctor but, you need to see a professional about this . My son was a three time state weight lifting champion in three separate weight classes during his high school years . Needless to say I have seen a lot of weight lifting injuries . He once had a "strange pain " in his lower arm , and one day while working out ,his fore arm mussels contracted so tightly they forced all of they body fluid from the mussel ,forming a huge bag of liquid under his forearm . The local doctor started to lance it to relieve the pain but , luckily he contacted a sports medicine doctor who stopped him from making a big mistake . After some intense physical therapy and meds the arm reabsorbed the liquid and he was back to normal . No pain however slight should be ignored . It's your body telling you something is wrong . I ignored a pain in my lower leg for over a year thinking it was just mussel strain or shin splints . It turned out to be a low grade slow growing bone cancer . So don't blow it off . GET IT CHECKED BY A PROFESSIONAL.

it sounds like the lab tech who took your blood was a little rough or in a hurry and gave you quite a bruise.  a little soreness and slight bruising is normal, but I'm not sure about yours.  you might call your dr.'s office and see if they think it needs to be seen about.\nwhen in doubt, have it checked out.

Your gloves should be comfortable with a little space at the finger tips. They should not be too tight though. Have some movement.

Don't worried about it, eventually you'll forget about it.\nIt's NOT bad cracking your knuckles, it just air between the cartilages, in fact is a good thing. It releases tension.

OK, the short answers:\n\nQ: My hand is tingling and is sore too what happened?\nA: You probably subluxated your shoulder, meaning it popped slightly out of the socket, but not fully. This being said, any one of several things could have happened to your hand, injury or subsequent pain are quite common with this type of injury. More than likely you've strained a nerve or pinched one.\n\nQ:The doc x rayed and said it is back in place and he said i have rotary cup damage what does that mean?\nA: Your rotary cup is the collection of muscles binding and holding your shoulder into the socket. Some tearing or stretching (straining) of these muscles are common with this type of injury.\n\nQ: He said i may need surgery why is that?\nA: If you have actually torn some or all of your rotary cup, surgery will be required in order to reconnect the muscle tissues and ensure proper healing.\n\nQ: I am supposed to check the circulation in my hand every once in awhile by checking my finger nails why do I have to do that?\nA: This is called "capillary reaction". What you are doing is pushing all the blood out of the capillaries under your nail and ensuring it fills back up in good time. You were asked to check this to ensure that your loosened shoulder is not pinching off any veins and that you haven't damaged any during the injury, which would probably result in you loosing your arm (the capillary reaction under normal circumstances for most people turns white when pinched and red within a couple seconds afterward).\n\nQ: Do i have to wear the collar and cuff that he gave me?\nA: If you want to heal, yes. Attempting to move the arm retards the healing process greatly and can cause improper healing.\n\n\nFinal Thoughs: To speed your healing, do EVERYTHING your doctor tells you. Wear your cuff, avoid moving/jarring your shoulder, maintain appointments with doctor and call him/her if you have questions or something seems wrong.\n\n\nAdditional Questions:\n-Your chiro is not a MD.\n-Muscles tears generally will not show up in Xray\n-Your doc should make that descision with you.

Absolutely.  In fact it is normal to be sore if you work out hard for the first time in a while.  Next time you work out, I would suggest working out your legs (leg press, squats etc.) and doing only a light arm workout to get the soreness out.  If you keep up the workouts you will get sore less and less.\n\nBut remember to alternate your workouts (i.e. upper body one time, lower body the next).  You get stronger because your muscles actually break down and regenerate stronger to accommodate the heavier loads, and if you don't give them time to heal, then you won't get any stronger and you won't have as much energy.

i have bruised my ribs and broke one there is nothing you can do but maybe ice it for the next 48 then use a hot pack. sorry to say but you are just gonna have to deal with it. I feel for you bro.

it depends.  the soreness is from lactic acid in your muscles and it takes a while to go away (this is normal).  if you worked out way too hard you should probably give it a rest for a day or two, but if it's just your standard i'm-not-used-to-working-out-so-im-a-little-sore-from-the-movement type stuff, you can keep at it.  just be mindful of the difference between regular soreness and actual injury.

No it isn't strictly normal but equally is something that does occaionally occur.  You should go back and consult your doctor and ask for their advise as to the best route forwards.  Possible repeat xrays or more physio or even acupuncture.  Whatever you decide make sure you don't just sit it out, if I had done that i would have lost the use of my left arm!!!
