How do I go about with an injured finger?

Two weeks ago a table fell on my hand and injured my fingers. It hurt really bad then but I was still able to move my fingers well so I believed I didn't fracture it. Now the cuts have been healed, does not hurt as much but I do feel slight pain when I apply pressure over the area and also I feel a little dent and it still looks a little swollen. Should I go see a doctor or is this normal and will it heal by itself?

    not much you can do for hurt fingers and toes. i guess just finger splints from like CVS or something if you want, but it should eventually heal on its own as long as you dont use it. it would probably be a good idea to get splints to immobalize it
