Yeah clean it out. Repair damaged inside bits then stitch up. Going under general anaesthetic as well.

Wow! Thought they would do that under local TBH.

Me too but it's down to the bone. Can see ball and cup joint.

Matt

:sick:

Lost more blood from iv they put in than from cut itself.

Watching "Shark Week" on the Discovery channel here... They had a few programs about people who survived shark attacks and showed people on video who got bit. If they listened to me yelling at the TV, they wouldn't have been bitten!

And no, I don't mean people who were out in the ocean and attacked. I mean people holding a small live shark by the tail out of water and expecting it not to attack. *ucking morons.

I love shark week

Tommy_TwinCams

I do too. Saw "Jaws" on TV as a young kid and I've been in awe of sharks since. Never really afraid of them but more fascinated by them. But still. Some of these "I survived a shark attack" people I think should've been eaten to keep them from breeding.

If a shark entered my home wearing nothing but a speedo, I'd probably attack him too.

I've got some nuts fascination on sharks too. I went to sharm last year and purposely went on some dives and reef snorkeling etc so I could get close and see them in the water.

So no operation today. Staying here the night. Hopefully tomorrow it gets done

surely a great big huge gash like that will take some closing up

Going to need some internal stitches looking at that picture.

Is there any tendon damage as well?

The other thing is that most people think of sharks as these vicious mindless killing machines and they're not. As a result of shark poaching, mainly for the demand for sharkfin soup, the population of sharks worldwide is dwindling and the oceans need sharks to keep balance in the food chain.

Matt

This pretty much sums it up for me

Oh it's just gets worse then! Are you going to loose some motion / feeling in the thumb?

guy_27

Still got full feeling. They are not concerned about it. They say it will be like it was in a few weeks.

Matt

That's good then. That would be my worst fear, loosing the sensation in it.

guy_27

I'm not concerned about sensation. Movement is all I care about

guy_27

Still waiting. Only reason I'm staying overnight is due to antibiotics they have me on.
