What Causes Sudden Pain, Bruising And Numbness In The Finger?

I have a problem with my thumb. It is like a flare up. On the end of my thumb it turns purple and is numb and it feels like a lot of pressure. It is hot. It did this last week and the next day it was normal. It just suddenly flared up again this afternoon. Is it a circulation problem and what should I do? Thank you
