Swollen hand advice
Last Sunday one of my ex partners family members came around and tried to push his way into my house. I hit him.
About 30 minutes after my knuckle below my little finger started to swell. Could hardly move it.
Fast forward to today and the hand is still swollen. I can move my finger more but still not make a fist and its still swollen. It has slight bruising to.
Any ideas?

Possibly broken and in need of an X- ray so try your local A+E as you do not want it to set wrong if that is the case.

Re: Swollen hand advice
The average person when punching another person quite often breaks a bone as they are unaware of how to correctly form a fist and strike a person so as not to actually injure themselves.

Unfortunately I used to suffer from this problem my little finger knuckle on either left or right would swell up like a golf ball. More than likely bruised I know with my hands it could and would more often than not stay up for 2-3 weeks.

Definitely this.
I had something similar, although I hadn't hit anyone, I don't think, I did it new years and can't remember how.
Went to A&E with it the next day, and it was broke, ended up I've had to have an operation on it and get the bone pinned.

Re: Swollen hand advice
What you are describing sounds like a "bar room fracture" (fracture of the 5th metacarpal). Go to A&E and get an xray. In the meantime ice the area (no longer than 10 minutes at a time, 4 or 5 times a day)
