I supppose it depends what you have done Brad this was micro surgery they say the arm must not move and for many other reasons i suppose its easier to knock you out.

I went in for first check today, no infection thank God and all seems well. They made me a new splint where i can now see all my digits so i can start exercising the fingers. Everything is a bit swollen right now stitches come out next friday. no driving for 8 weeks. So far so good.

Just a little update, I can take my splint off now just have to wear it when i'm sleeping. My finger seems to be healing well had fun the other day peeling off the scabs :lol: to reveal nice new skin . Starting to do lots more exercises now and hopefully a week friday I should be able to start driving again. Heres a couple of photos first one was Monday on my way to hospital in the splint for a check up then out of the splint showing the zigzag scar.

Went to see the consultant about mine on Monday. Been signed off so to speak.

I was driving the day after in my case - changing gears wasn't that hard. Mind you the handbrake, that I had to reach over with the right hand to pull up and take down.

Hope it all heals.

Yeah i think they worry more when its tendon damage I cant squeeze anything yet or carry anything heavy. Luckily I managed to do a couple of days work the other day I just had to oversee someone fitting a kitchen I was dying to get stuck in and fit it myself but still had my splint on then :lol:
