Unfortunately arthritis or arthritic symptoms are pretty normal.Im always doing my own PT and its been 38 years since my accident.Usually after the gym.Last-12-Exit said:
My accident was 4 years ago. I went to PT 3 times a week for almost a full year. Once I was able to get back to work full time, I stopped going to the actual PT office and did it on my own. They think I may have "over worked" it. Which it a direct contradiction from what they told me when I was released. They claimed that I had to keep working the hand to prevent stiffening and arthritis.rr165892 said:
Sucks dude.PT isn't helping?Last-12-Exit said:
I would have known what u were talking about if u said trigger finger. But definitely wouldn't have been appropriate in that thread. I had an mri on my hand yesterday because the tendons in my ring finger (which were reconstructed from a piece of tendon in my wrist) are starting to bow-string. I'm thinking I will probably have to have another surgery sometime in the near future.rr165892 said:Last 12, I was gonna break your balls with a trigger finger joke on the Mike Brown thread ,but I thought that would be tasteless and insensitive.lol
Btw that's why I carry a Springfield and not a Glock.Grip is way better suited for my custom fit.
My guess is that the scar tissue had a big part in the tendons contracting and bow stringing.We'll see what the surgeon says in a few days when he gets the pictures from today.0 -
I saw him when I was playing around looking at pics.I also found Jesse James(the outlaw)Buster Keaton,and Galileo all were missing fingers alsoWho Princess said:The pictures of guitarists with maimed fingers brings to mind the great Django Reinhardt. His hand was badly burned in a house fire and and never healed properly, so all that lovely jazz guitar was played with him using the thumb and first 2 fingers of his left hand.

Its funny how this thread turned. Imalive started with a simple story oc how he fucked up his hand and rr and I took it over with our own stories of amputation. Sorry to steal your thunder!0

Yes and no. A couple of pages back, I think it was rr posted a picture of his hand. Mine looks very similar just with a but more scarring. The tendons in my ring finger are not responding the way the surgeons wanted so it looks like I will be having another surgery or two to correct that. If I do, I will definitely post the pictures here!0

wow...I missed a lot of tangential discussionWhatYouTaughtMe said:
I'm hoping I can find the pic of when I fell off a keg while getting done with a kegstand. Required over 150 stiches in four spots on my face with loose skin dangling from my lip. Not my finest moment. Was fifteen years ago so I might not have it anymore. Fingers crossed!rr165892 said:Bring your "A"game
But seriously, damn Rob! Be careful with that thing!)
WYTM - you must find a picture of that! a damn shame you did this pre-camera phones. what kind of effect did it have on the party? if you say "very little," we will know it was a good one

Well I searched and searched and it is long gone. Sorry guys. It was at 4am and the party kind of stopped briefly, but in my drunkeness I fought for an hour and refused to get treatment and continued to drink and smoke until I started to get woozy from blood loss. I finally swallowed my pride and went. The ER called the police because they didn't believe I hadn't been beaten. It was comical after the fact, although I did have the worst headache for a week. Sorry to get everyone's hopes up.imalive said:

Seven of my friends went to the ER with me so I guess we just kind of moved the party.
Edit - I completely forgot this was the conclusion of a legendary three night run of three consecutive trips to the ER. First night a friend stepped on a rusty lumber spike that went through his foot while partying and burning an old collapsed barn, second night a rock exploded in the fire and a dime sized flat piece seared itself to my friends eyeball (luckily the white part only), and of course the third night. Now that I think about it, that place was cursed something fucking awful.Post edited by WhatYouTaughtMe on0 -
I don't think MOTHER F**KER!! does this thread justice. holy shit, that's nasty. I'm glad you're ok, and didn't lose the thumb.I win.0

I can't claim a legendary three night run of consecutive nights to the ER but I do often wonder how various friends and I survived our younger years.
I think I fucked up today.....I removed the stitches myself....and my thumb split back open.

I removed my stitches too, but I waited until the area they were holding together were healed!0

I too removed my own stitches when I tried to remove the bottom of my big toe when I was 18. However it was way past the 10 day period and I had no choice as I was backpacking across BC at the timeAnything you lose from being honest
