Boo went to Occupational Therapy (OT) today. They removed the plaster cast and he’s now in a splint for the next 6-12 weeks! He CANNOT use that hand at all, any movement could cause the tendons to snap and have to have the surgery re-done, Uh No Thanks! He goes back in a week for bandage changes and a new set of exercises.
I have added some pictures of his hand today, they are NOT for the faint of heart…viewer’s discretion is advised.
Boo before getting the cast off, he looks nervous huh?!
1st view of hand, the purple is just marks the DR. made in case he needed to cut that far down.
View after being cleaned…looks clean huh? Boo didn’t feel too well after looking at his hand, although I did surprising well.
Wrapped and ready for the splint, will add splint pic after he gets home from school.
