Is my finger broken or just bruised?

Hello!

I was playing Basketball at the gym at my school, I was going for the ball, but the ball hit my Index,Middle, and my ring finger and it made it bend! The index and ring finger don't hurt. It's the middle finger. My middle finger is fatter than the one in my oppisite finger. If I move it a little, or just back, it hurts. My Middle finger is also purple. The nurse at my school only gave me an Ice pack. So, is it Fractured,Broken or just bruised? It just hurts as I am typing this :/

You jabbed your finger, it's very common, it's just bruised and will heal within a week :)
