I suppose you type without using the affected finger. No?

Yep. It is pretty hard holding it straight out and not using it all day. Rather tiring.

There was recently an interesting article in the New Yorker about how leeches have made a great resurgence as a treatment technique.

Hey Tico, as a healer, Im aquick learner. Ignorance just fires me up. Whatdya want to know about chiggers now?

This is about jp and his battle with power tools.

Leeches have their place in a health plan that involves a good balanced diet, plenty or rest and exercise, and an occasional leech.

Yeah... no more booger pickin'

But I am walking around with what looks like a giant tampon around my finger. It's kind of an even trade in the public humiliation contest.

Last summer my Mom was washing out a glass and it broke as she was sticking her hand inside to scrub the bottom. Cut the begeezus out of her finger near her thumb - Huge v shaped chunk towards the base knuckle. Bled like the dickens, but of course she wasn't gonna go for stitches bein' a farm raised girl and all.

She decided superglue would work about as well as any doctor, since they now use superglue in OR's according to a story she read.

Worked! Nice scar, but it worked.

I use super glue all the time. Its non-toxic and most of the time when the cut heals it pushes the glue right out. Works real good.

I use superglue for wound repair myself quite a bit - and its included (naturally, sterile, surgical grade certified) in professional emergency response kits. Duct tape butterfly bandages work pretty well on your run-of-the-mill, relatively-not-too-badly-gaping wounds too. Silicon adhesive can be used, too, but be advised - that stuff is hell on body hair at removal time Mr. Green

Someone used "screamish!"

Superglue, huh? Innerestin'.
