More than a month ago, I hurt my finger playing floor hockey. Of course being me, I didn't do anything about it.
About 10 days I went to the doctor with a considerable about of pain in my right pinky finger. The evening doctor was stuck in traffic so the nurse told me to put it in a splint. If it wasn't better in a week to come back and I would get x-rays.
Fast forward to Saturday when my finger was hurting even when it was in the splint. Before that it was pretty good. Sunday it was even worse and today on the way home from work I was nearly in tears.
The good news, as you can see, I do not have a fractured pinky. The bad news is I have a torn ligament that will take upwards of 3 months to heal. D'accord, d'accord.

"Fete sur."
ugh, I've torn a ligament in my thumb before in a car accident..they hurt like the DEBIL (no that was not a mistype..Waterboy!) Apparently that sorta injury hurts more than an actual break..you have my sympathy!
Yeah, if it was fractured it would have been 3 weeks. This is going to take 3 months.
At least now I have a topical anti-inflammatory. I have to not do anything with my hand for a minimum of a half hour after it is applied. I'm supposed to apply it 4 times a day. Yeah, right. I usually end up using it about twice a day.
