Hi
Hoping someone might have some advice for me please.
I cut my finger badly 5 weeks ago on a blender, breaking the top of it in two places; across the tip and down the side which also yanked the ligament.
I’ve been treated by the hand clinic and am now just receiving therapy for it. No dressings or splint. The cuts are healing, I am massaging the finger with aquaeous cream as advised. It’s still swollen, not surprisingly but this has mostly been on the underneath where the cuts are but today the left hand side has swollen up a bit. Is that usual? I’m using the finger to the extent I’ve been advised which means I’ve caught/knocked it a couple of times.
I’m not usually such a wimp but it’s really frustrating me today as it’s been feeling better each day and now it’s sore again. I know I’m probably being impatient too!
Thanks
