What Causes Discoloration And Pain In Right Ring Finger Knuckle And Drooling?

The knuckle on my right ring finger has suddenly turned purple and is painful. I was at the dr on Friday because there was drooping on my eyelid, and my mouth has been pooling with drool on same side. They think it could be bells pallsy but I haven t been able to see a neurologist. I asked them to do an ekg which was normal, and my blood work was normal as well. My tongue is also slightly swollen... Could this be an indication of a blood clot?
