Dislocation of hand from wrist, it was just hanging on my wrist. Almost passed out after seeing it, but proceeded to pull and put it back into its socket.

Proceeded to hospital and a cast was put on.
Asked the attending physician if I did the right thing. He said it would have been more painful if you'd had waited, because the body would have tensed the muscle making it more painful to put back.

@eyeno Aww Def painful. How did it happen? So glad you positioned it back in .

@Coralmist knocked my phone on a rocky field, when retriving it I stumbled on two boulders and my hand went in-between them (ouch).
lol, always was somewhat clumsey.

@eyeno Interesting. I remember reading some place about how sport team medics can impact healing time and severity of injury by knowing when and how to push dislocated joints back together. I'm always amazed when I see injured US football players being so quickly diagnosed and treated while still on the field.

I was one of the millions watching on TV a few years ago when Buffalo team medic knew exactly what to do to save player Damar Hamlin's life.

@eyeno Aww I'm sorry but so glad it's doing better. And that you repositioned it. How long will it be to heal?
eyeno · M
@Coralmist it happened about ten years ago and took about a month to heal.
