Re: I hurt my trigger finger.
But I still feel your pain...and I know what you mean about feeling every heartbeat...when I did mine the surgeon said "make sure you manage your pain". What he meant was to stay ahead of it with the meds he gave me. I thought I'd tough it out the day after. HUGE MISTAKE. HUGE!!!
Heal up soon.

Re: I hurt my trigger finger.
I'm just now getting to the point where I can type with it. It hurt but my real concern was a blood clot breaking loose.
