Slice



whilst doing some diy today, and using a paint scraper, bulbboy sliced his finger.
well, not sliced but more like thudded into it.
it could have been a lot worse.
there was a lot of blood, please excuse the pictures, those of you that are squeamish.

after rinsing the wound with water, i checked to see how deep it went.
pulling the flaps of skin to the side (as you do), i was surprised to find some "stuff" bulging out.

bulbgirl thought that this could be a severed tendon and promptly marched me off to A&E.
the "stuff" turned out to be no more than subcutaneous fat or tissue, quite interesting.
my hand will heal up no with no problems said the doc.
thank goodness!
i was worried for a moment that my flashlight grip would be adversely affected,
don't worry bulbfans, it's only my grip on reality that is slipping...
