I think I might have overpracticed... My pinky hurt like hell now... Do u have any methods to get rid of the pain? I've a concert tomorrow and on Monday... Help!!!

 

[Daniel]

At first: rest. If you go on practising, it would become worse and worse. Make little relaxing exercises with your pinky (slow motions...). Take compresses with sedative essences.

During an injury of my thumb in its recreation when it hurt very badly it helped me to put the thumb into cold water, but here maybe you should try warm water (more sedative i think)

And most important. Take a rest

Wish you all the best and a good concert.

It's much better now... I soaked it in hot water. Thanks. Wish me luck for the next 2 days. I really need it. Thanks

It may be too late for the Monday concert, but puttin a very large book on top of your hand (palm up) and lifting the book with your fingers helps a lot.

Weight lifting with the book? Really?
Sometimes I wind em tight with bandages. The tightness seems to stop the pain...but unfortunately blood flows at the same time. Sometimes they turn blue after I removed the bandages. But the hurt really does stop.

This seems abit torturous to me.

Could you feel anything in your fingers afterward?

Maybe that's why it doesn't hurt anymore? :lol:

I get a thrill with hooking up with my TC ancestors.

and was Putin involved?

and was Putin involved?

Putin held the book down, because strong fingers do the body good.

Putin wasn't even born yet when he posted that!

Don't be like OP. Work on fingering daily to avoid painful injuries!
