If your finger is warm and red, and if there is no obvious injury causing the swelling, it could be an infection. It is recommended to mark the swollen area with a pen and schedule an appointment with a doctor to get an antibiotic prescription. It is important to seek medical attention promptly if you notice the swelling progressing beyond the marked area.
