Hey everyone,
About 5 weeks ago I had an accident where I lost part of the tip of my left index finger (including part of the bone). I had surgery, stitches, and everything has now been removed. The wound is closed and healing, but the fingertip is still very sensitive, a bit numb in some spots, and feels kind of “weird” with pressure and touch.
I can move the finger and use it, but gripping and pressing directly on the tip still hurts, and the sensation isn’t the same as my other fingers yet.
For anyone who’s had a similar fingertip injury:
- Did your sensitivity and pressure feeling come back?
- How close to “normal” did it get?
- How long did it take before it felt natural again and you stopped thinking about it?
I’m mainly worried about whether I’ll be able to use it like before without noticing a difference.
Any experiences or advice would really help 🙏
