[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 688538, member: 15032"] I convinced my husband to go to urgent care yesterday morning to have his finger looked at. He had been dealing with a bout of gout in the same hand on his ring and pinkie finger so had been taking medication for it. This pops up when he tries to do the Atkins diet. I happened to notice Friday night that his pinkie finger at the top joint was not straight and was bent over a bit. He insisted it was due to gout swelling (minimal) and that it would straighten out when swelling was gone...hmmmm. And only THEN he told me he smashed his finger a month ago in an industrial cabinet at a steel mill he was working in.......ah. Thought it was "sprained". Sure enough. It's broken and he needs hand surgery. It wasn't due to his lack of having it addressed, just the way the break occurred, the tendon is not attached properly. Men!:kickedoutsmile: [/QUOTE]
