Glad to hear the cast is gone, hope the recovery is speedy. Did you get a little squishy ball to do exercises to build the strength back up in your hand and forearm?

Take care

I had my cast removed last Friday, after the scan result showed no fracture just severe bone bruising - mainly in my right hand of course, but also some in my left thumb.

It wasn't a very pretty sight and i spent a good 10 minutes in the plaster room with lots of warm soapy water (lucky i was their only customer lolol)

It was very painful to start with but as the days pass i have gained more mobility and only have tenderness if i am not careful what i do.

I was given a support to wear but it wasn't very fetching so i now have a couple of supports with thumb splints, to wear for anything repetitive or likely to cause a strain, as the thumbs need the most support.

It was a bit strange feeling at first, but then i have to admit to taking great pleasure in doing some simple tasks like washing up lol ............. oh and what bliss to have a bath and shower etc and be able to use both hands lol

All I am waiting for now is to get the car tax renewed at the end of next week for August and i can get back on the road - oh i have soooooo missed my driving - and the walking to and from the train is slowly wearing me and my legs to a frazzle :O(

And that's it ...................... lol x
