Wow. Cool device there;) I'm impressed that she was able to just whip that up. Sounds like things are finally moving in the right direction.

I hope so. My goal is to push myself as hard as I'm allowed so when I go back to the specialist in a few weeks she can make a valid assessment of whether PT is working or we need to look at other options.

I've had plenty of jammed fingers, this one just feels / reacts so different.

Certainly if it's not better in two months, it's a different animal! I can't believe you put up with it for two months. Although I probably would have waited at least that long just because going to the doctor is such a nuisance.

Good luck with PT! I'm in PT for my knee right now and it's helping a lot. I hope it helps your finger too!! :)

Wow - your finger is still swollen? That's madness. It's going to take some time to recover after that much time.

Just don't overdo it with the PT, mmmkay?

[elkethegreyt]

I'm going to try not to since that will only make it take even longer to recover. She gave me a bit of a reference point on when to stop with my stretching exercises so that I don't over do it.

That's good - it's almost like she knows you :-)

Actually, I think it's more that she gets a lot of people that over do it. She was telling me war stories from some of her male patients that had pushed it to far. And I can't push too hard, when the specialist bent my finger and somewhat again yesterday at PT, I got light headed from the pain / reaction.

Fun contraption! :) But sorry to hear your finger is still not well. :( Good luck with all the PT!
