Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
Since you were gardeneing yes it can be a ruptured blood vessel. It can also be an insect bite. Apart from this, it can also be an infection in the pulp of your finger.
You can apply ice pack or dip hand in cool water, and take a pain killer to reduce swelling.
However, it would be best to consult your doctor.
Take care!
