12 hours ago I slipped backwards while descending stairs and whacked my elbow. All my weight and leverage from my 6’4 frame landed square on my funny bone. Immediatly I was shaken up and my pinky went numb. I looked and saw a dark red streak on the tip that wasnt there before. Presumably from broken blood vessels. Currently the pinky is half covered my a massive bruise and it hurts.
Im still not feeling super well. I have a high pain tolerance and normally shrug off life’s little knocks. But something about that Ulnar nerve getting 
really messed with me.
Kinda concerned because I cant find any similar cases online. I saw a doctor on campus and she said not to worry but I’m also wary of doctors since transitioning. I dont get the same standard of care that I did before.

Sorry, that seems painful. No need to worry though unless you have trouble moving your fingers or wrist (check if you can clench your fist with good force, and carefully see if you can move and flex your pinky normally). Also look for any part of your forearmarm or hand becoming painfully swollen, or pale and sweaty. It is normal though to have a numb pinky (often affects the ring finger too) for up to several days.
Once I hit my elbow really hard and I had a numb pinky for a couple of weeks, it’s uncomfortable, but at least blunt impacts rarely hurt a nerve permanently.
