@George-K Were you able to watch the procedure?

Nope.

Block has worn off. I'm taking 1000 mg acetaminophen q 6 h. Took some at 8:30 (pre-op) and some at 3 PM. Minor incisional pain 2–3 on a scale of 1–10.

Surgeon called in some Norco (Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen) at 9 AM to Walgreens. Not gonna need it.

He called it in at 9 AM. It took Walgreens until now (5:45) to fill it. Good thing I'm not hurting.

@George-K How is surgery day +1?

Just saw this @George-K . Good luck with your recovery. Has peak swelling occurred yet? What do you do for this? Elevate it?

I'd squirrel the Norco away and use if I needed it.

Hope you're doing well, post-op. I guess today will be the toughest day, so take it easy.

Woke Sat am at 3 to pee and pain. Tylenol fixed it. Negligible pain throughout the day yesterday. Last tylenol at 9PM yesterday - no pain this AM. Wound is a bit itchy, but that's it. Mild discomfort (swelling/stiffness) if I stretch the ring finger but that's it.

Seeing some videos on youtube makes me realize how lucky i was to find this surgeon. Tourniquet time was 10 minutes (it was released to close both wounds).

Itch is occasional. Not even mildly annoying.

My guy did my thumb this way, and you can see how quick it is.

It's really a "nothing" operation.

How will you know when it is fixed?

When it stops getting caught.

Still seems intense for a nothing operation! Really hope it recovers okay and you get back to playing soon.

I have some joke about stigmata and St Francis but it alludes me at the present time
