Finger tip amputation! -- view with caution

OREGON85

from OREGON
The recovery is coming along fairly well. I don't have any bandaging, just a plastic cap I can take off if I need to. The first pic is a week after surgery and the second is 2 minutes ago.

Much better than the previous one, looks like an explosive got to it. It should be fine once the skin has had a chance to figure out what it is doing.

I know its a little late. Here's what happens when a 3" wide timing belt get's your hand. I'm just glad I was able to pull it out before it got my arm:D Protect them finger's, they don't seem to growing back to well:-\


Sorry pics not working out, I'll work on em.

That makes my stomach turn, I smashed my big toe a few years back and it did the same thing. The Dr compared it to popping a zit. He slid the skin back on over the toe and sewed it up. Now its numb and grew back on a little sideways. If your hurt as much as that did "I feel for ya.

Ha ha I was wrong looks like they didn't get deleted Kevin :D

I wasn't there when that happened. I took that night off of work to fly to Ohio at the last minute. Stupid AST anyway right?!

Yep it was a good one, hurt like hell! It happened about 2 1/2 yrs ago. They couldn't really save any of the fingers because it took most the meat off. They asked if I wanted to try and sew one of my toes on my hand so I had a stub but that didn't sound very. . . attractive to me. Haha I'll get some pics of it now, the sergeon did a good job with it:D
