Mar. 16th, 2011 01:06 pmHand injuries suck. I spent most of Monday sat in A&E to get my little finger looked at after hurting it at work on Friday night. I banged it on our special George vaccuum and it really hurt. Saturday it was still a little sore and by Sunday it was very painful, swollen and clicking funny. So we buddy bandaged it and asked Shel to take us to the hospital.
The Doctor said it wasn't broken, but I've hurt the tendon and I have to keep an eye on it over the next six weeks or so to make sure it doesn't start to curl up funny. If it starts to curve I have to have hand surgery.
It's still incredibly painful and very swollen and still clicky - which is apparently fluid on the knuckle. It still needs strapping up and it makes work pretty difficult, but it could've been a lot worse so I suppose I can't complain.
