I had a skateboard crash last week and one of the body parts I injured was my finger. It didn't look like much but there was a fair bit of blood. Anyway, over the week it has swolen up and today I pulled off the gross looking scab and there's a big-ass hole in my finger. Ew.

you're idea of "big-ass hole" and my (and my wife's) idea of a "big-ass hole" are insanely different...

Heh, for some reason if that were my finger, I'd trim the skin around it with nail clippers just to make it flat.

Meh I might give it a couple of weeks, trying to save money for a new rig and don't wanna go wasting precious cash on medical supplies.

That looks pretty cool. I remember when I had a platers wart on my big toe, looked pretty cool through a microscope. :p I used to just play with it for fun. Probably did not help the healing process though...

Here in the US a bottle of hydrogen peroxide is about as cheap as a bottle of water. Any drug store will carry it. I think the last time I bought a quart of the stuff I paid $1.30. It's dirt cheap.

LOL now you've got me experimenting. Macro finger! (quality sucks, I don't have a macro lens so I mounted my old kit lens backwards :p)

That's not that big of a hole. I was sort of expecting something larger and deeper.

A thread for that little "boo-boo?" Do you need your mommie to kiss it and make it better?

Fucking pussy. Rub some dirt on it.

Your mum already kissed it better, thanks though.

What the fuck did you do...sneak into my closet and stir it around in the box of ashes? :roll:

Welcome to skating. It's not the first and it won't be the last of your injuries. I've got basically a second tibia on each leg thanks to skating.

-edit-
That looks like you got wheel burn from a grab. Melon or mute would be my guess.
