[|Human|] Hi, today I punched a wall and obviously after the adrenaline wore off it became very painful. I had different frozen foods on it throughout the day and now I have had ice off it for about 2 hours. I just put my hand on a flat surface and it felt like there was a ball in my palm under the pinky area, it is heavily swollen around this area. I wanted to know if the reason I feel this ball is because of the swelling or my 5th metacarpal breaking?
[|AI|]  Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. Thank you for your query. I am Chat Doctor and I will try to help you as much as I can. Yes, this is probable cause of such swelling since hematoma spreads around fracture site, and it may affect other areas of hand, so this is nothing to be concerned. I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us. Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
