crush injury....graphic
i dropped a 16' long 8x8 onto my thumb literally blew out the tissue and bone. went to an urgent care who wouldnt touch it. spent 5 hours in the ER. i cant imagine trying to treat this in the woods! ive broken a lot of bones over the years (including ribs) and this was by far the most painful.

Brother!
Get yourself on a good mineral supplement and B-vitamin regimen.
Heal!

Eek. Reminds me of an injury my dad got at the ranch. You'll be okay.
(Love the avatar, by the way).

One thumb up for this thread. :p
Hope you heal up quick!

gotta have a skin and tissue graft
-
Just looking at that made my thumbs hurt! I hope your grafts take well & you heal quickly. I crushed my left pinkie 3yrs ago, but nothing like that. Is it just the tip, or did the joint get mashed, too?
-
no joint damage fortunately but lost some bone as well as the tissue

I had one of those injuries when I was 16 years old and I am now 65 . It will get better though. I still have the scar !!! The picture brought back memories.

Probably nerve damage also.
