so here i was about to commit to the psycho crux and i get pumped psyching. i jump off, again, buit this time something's not right, i go sideways and land on my mat, put my hand out to stop me falling further and bend all my fingers back. pain. and i was going to get that problem too! so close yet so far!

my point being, anyone else done this, how long should i lay off for and what could i do to recover quicker? cheers

I fell off the top of the Eagle Stone and did the same to my hand. My knuckles hurt loads for a couple of weeks. put an ice pack on them and tape up if you cant hold off climbing. The longer you lay off the quicker they will heal.Boring but true

it was actually ok, cranking back at full power after two days. no pain or swelling
