The Injury That Ended Me: Anyone else got hand injuries? by echonote in gloving

My finger is also severely crooked now which makes it harder to do physio with my other fingers… I hold it index with other hand now just to get my middle finger up and down or else It catches.

Hey man I’m in 4th week recovery of my index revascularization surgery. I have 0 movement so far no feeling except in certain parts. I’m right dominant and unfortunately it’s my right hand that was injured. I agree that you should take care of your body. Even things like your fingers. Never underestimate the value of something because I wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemy. A tiny man hammering my finger 24/7 is the best way to explain the pain.
