Yeah, I can still use my right hand for typing, like now, but
that's about it. Twice as thick as the other hand. Called
HMO, they said come in, maybe for a shot....


GO! I got hit on my right hand once. Kept waiting for the swelling to go
down. It didn't, and after a few days, the skin was ready to split. I got
a cortisone shot, and half an hour later there was a noticeable difference
in reduction.

Going down just a bit so far.


Treated a non-problem and left the problem alone---typical!
