Can't find a similar post. Thought I'd start one with my finger dislocation from Llandegla yesterday. Ironically went there for an easier time of it than the Somme-esque bomb sites of the Peaks. Anyway, it bloody hurts more now than when I did it. Photos just before my trip to A&E.
Yup. Looks nasty. Hope you get it sorted quickly. I'll pray it heals with no mither.
That looks painful to look at. seek medical attention ASAP. get well soon, buddy
I see you are a guitar player, you might have to start playing django style. I hope you get it back to full strength.
Haha, well spotted roper. We're moving house next week and the wife wants to pack my guitar away. Maybe this was a subconscious way of making it that I can't miss playing for a while.
It's all popped back into place now and on the mend.
Broken or dislocation?
I see you are a guitar player
How on earth did you spot that?!?
Calluses on the fingertips of the left hand.
Dead giveaway.
well you did ask... (a drop off that went a bit wrong at Cathkin in 2013)

Django is awesome. I also am a guitarist. Knowing now that you play guitar puts your injury in a the category "nearly lost a limb" hope it fully heals so you can noodle effectively without impediment.
Ianc. When did that happen and how. If it's current, I pray you heal quickly, if it's in the past I hope it's now a distant memory.
strawnam, yes edited now. Dec 13, still a haunting one though... 😯
That's not too long ago, I bet Christmas was fun. Glad to hear you are over it. Looked like a pretty bad face plant. Ian
Ianc. When did that happen
Most weeks? 😉
Sorry, Iain.
Perchy, if that's happening most weeks it's time to take up knitting

aye... 🙂
mine was a good while back and as PP says, I've had a few more less dramatic ones since 🙂
Just a dislocation shermer75.
The pulling and popping back in hurt more than anything else.

I've edited your thread title to protect the hard of thinking who might happen into here and then complain about it.

Joining Hols in the 'how on earth did you manage that?' category. A little bit of a bruise after going over the bars on the descent from Blackstone Edge. When the bike landed, one end of the bars dug into the ground, I landed on the other end, and it went right into the back of my knee

Not had a significant crash for 8 years, I iz jeyboy mincer these days.
Not showing you my scars. 😀
Separated shoulder. The injury was nothing to look at, not even a graze.
The surgery however:

That looks great Nedrapier.
"looks great?" 😕
It is great though. 3 ligaments snapped through, it was all over the place before the surgery, 3 months after the accident.
6 months post surgery now and I'm very happy with it. Not quite as-new condition, but not far off. And I'm now bionic.
Glad to hear that it has healed up nicely Nedrapier. I've dislocated both my shoulders, not at the same time. Crashed bike 30 yards from the house I was sharing in Shelton, Stoke on Trent, after doing a 30 mile mega trek. Tyres fullomud, lost it wheelie hopping the kerb. That was left shoulder. T shirts always hung funny on me until I did right shoulder in near Delph after hitting patch of ice. That one really hurt but evened up my shoulder profile. T shirts now fit as they should, result.

You have born children and I am thankful for your reticence. 😀
BPW on a easy blue bit. Felt like the nose of the saddle was being pushed through my leg
