I got a new splint for my hand today. It's kind of ugly (they do make pretty silver ones that look like jewelry, but they don't make one of those for the particular joint that I need splinted, so I got a plastic and velcro one), but it does seem to work pretty well. Even just wearing it for a day, my hand is hurting a lot less.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Great news, Hil. Maybe you can bedazzle it (or something)?
I can definitely replace the plain tan velcro with other colors of velcro. I'm not sure whether I want to do anything with the plastic part, though -- pretty much anything I do would be permanent, so it's got to be something that I'd be OK with having on my hand all the time.
Is there a tattoo design you've been contemplating? Good opportunity to see how you like it long term. IJS
No tattoos for me. Religious thing.
Even better! A tattoo that wouldn't actually desecrate your skin! (Is desecrate the word I want there?)
There's not too much of the plastic part to work with -- just a few thin strips.
Well, helping with the pain IS the important thing. Bling really should take a backseat, I guess.
I do hope the splint eliminates the pain and helps prevent further injury. Might be able to Google some decorative ideas for it.
Watched the final episode for Stefano on Days of Our Lives today. It was kind of sad, but at least there was some closure.
Oh dear. Mom still watches Days...and we've got a reception tonight for a family friend that passed away earlier this week. Gonna be a bummer of a day from start to finish for poor Mom.
