After me saying i had knckered my pinkie celebrating a goal yesterday.I thought I would tell you what happened.After spending the night with a throbbing finger, I went to Minor Injuries at the Western this morning and got my finger x-rayed.
It turns out I've torn the extensor tendon in my finger,and haven't broken the mallet bone. So I've to keep my finger in a splint for the time being and I'm being sent to Orthopedics. But the nurse says that Orthopedics will probably not be able to do anything for me.
Anyway I've to keep my finger in a splint for the time being, otherwise I could end up with a permanently bent finger.

Ouch, hope it's not too painful and recovered in time for further exuberance at the final.

I was going to suggest taping to the next finger as there's usually not much to be done.
 
Is this scars top trumps?Do you want to see the one the Sick Kids gave me? It was for a muscle biopsy.My mum who teached sewing should have made them take the stiches out and do them again.

Update.Got in touch with my doctor about two weeks ago.Got an appointment for an over the phone consultation just now.The doctor is going to send a letter to the hand clinic.Doubt they can do anything for me.Must admit pinkie has stopped throbbing like a bastard.
 
Worryingly, every time I see this thread title i read it as Little Winkie Update.....
