First of all, I'm not sure if this is the right forum for my question. I'm sorry if it isn't.
Anyway, I hurt my hand yesterday (Monday) in sparring. We were training with MMA gloves that have more padding (used in amateur competitions here in Finland). I threw a left hook and it landed somehow badly to my sparring partner's side of the head. I felt immediate pain in the back of my hand but I still could continue training (it didn't feel too bad).
The thing is, the back of my hand doesn't feel any better today (Tuesday). I can move all my fingers but can't take a decent grip of anything and the hand feels weak. There isn't any notable swelling in my hand. Otherwise there wouldn't be any problem but I'm set to have my amateur MMA debut on Saturday. If the hand doesn't feel better by tomorrow (Wednesday) I'll go to see a doctor.
What do you guys think about my situation? Does the "injury" sound like it will be ok by Saturday or should I be worried? I really wouldn't like to drop the fight.
Thanks.
Ps. I made this thread because I'm sure this is pretty common "injury". I don't believe anything is broken or anything serious like that. I'd just like to know what are your experiences on things like this.
