Title: Injured Finger
Post by: ddzc on June 06, 2008, 08:06:54 AM

Hey all,

I was attempting a spinner back in January and I messed up my middle finger. I can move my finger around but theres a lot of sharp pain when I try to pick up a bowling ball or grip anything tightly. It's been 5 mths and it hasn't gone away. I tried icing, doc has no recommendations, xrays show everything OK.

Do you guys have any recommendations? Has this happened to you maybe?

Below is a pic of an arrow of exactly where on the finger it kills.

It sounds like you sprained your finger when you did it. I did that playing Golden Tee Golf a while back. I still have some trouble with the finger 8 months later but what I found helped at first was that I got vise tape and rapped my finger from the base to the last knuckle just leaving the fingertip exposed. I would also recommend stretching out the finger before bowling.

I tore the muscle in the palm of my ring finger.  I just took that finger out of the ball and continued to bowl.  It affected my game a bit.  But, I learned how to pick 10 pins that way
