slow progress

Having a stiff thumb is taking some getting use to. Simple things like turning the pages of a newspaper, lighting a match, or picking my nose are difficult tasks. Not being able to bend it is the problem. The dr said that I don't use it much that way anyway...Bullshit!  ahh well..
Plus there is alot of scare tissue which is almost always painful and I think it will probably be that way for the rest of my life :(.
I will see him in a month and will have to talk to him some more about it.  Arrgghhh! Frustrating!

Ahh you can pick your nose with your index finger. And the pain will go away - you just don\'t believe it right now.

You will adjust to the stiff thumb! You wouldn\'t have been able to pick your nose without a thumb either! :) Count your blessings.

Are there any things you can swap thumbs to do? I now use my mouse with my left hand to take some pressure off my right shoulder. Its supposed to enhance your brain to do tasks with opposite side. Make you even smarter than you are now!
Hugs for you xxxx

You pick your nose with your THUMB? Man, you must have a big schnozzola! LOL!
