Title: bent me fingers back
Post by: andy_e on September 16, 2005, 09:36:55 am

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
