Changed dressing

Took off the long finger splint, had to soak it for half an hour in some boiled water with povidone iodine. It is pretty swollen, and there is a part that wasn't sewn up, that leaked a bit. They gave me an antibiotic mesh and a 4 sided splint to put on. It looks relatively good, no infection. Still hurts like hell....especially when I bump it.

You aren't supposed to bump it! However, having said that, I can remember that the injured part is always the first part to get bumped.
Take care! Pat.
