JAMMED FINGER
A jammed finger describes pain and swelling of the middle joint of the finger and can occur when something hits the top of your finger hard, jamming that knuckle. Trying to catch a ball that strikes the tip of the finger and bends it backwards is one of the most common causes of jammed fingers.
