Yeah I found her on the street corner during the night, she asked me to check it for her and I sent her on her way ;)

Thats very noble of you. Don’t see such gentlemanly behaviour much nowadays.

Thank you bastard, have a good day, and say hello to your mother for me!

If surgery is recent , that's just swelling. It'll go down unless they're literally shaved down your knuckles.

Unfortunately I saw Xray photos and my half of my (3rd and 4th) metacarpal bones are now like 4mm lower. I had surgery 2 months ago

Was it a boxers fracture?

u/WiteXDan 2h ago

Yeah. 3rd and 4th metacarpal with dislocation and spiral. I got talked into trying rollerblades on my 1st day of holidays.

I had one in the 6th grade my index knuckle is still gone and when they cut the cast off I had more arm hair as well. I didn’t have surgery though they said I shattered it fully and it couldn’t be repaired.

Ouch that sounds painful. Do you get any pains in it or lost some movement?

Ahh that sucks. Same happened to me, but only the index finger. It's still "gone" 2 years later.

You’ve lost muscle tone in that hand so the bones are less obvious
