Be careful not to be a martyr, you may struggle but if you need 2 weeks in plaster, 2 weeks it really should be. Take care.I popped out for a little 5 miler today, decided not to turn left an thought that I would do a nice 12 miles instead with an option to go for 15 or 16 miles if I fancied it. Then, I saw a chap on an e-bike and rode with him a while. I stopped for a few mins as my left hand had lost feeling. It turned out that my glove liner had twisted.
I took the opportunity to change gloves as my hands were too warm (who even knew that that happened in the winter) and headed on home. 33 miles done and dusted.
I am semi tempted to try for 2 more points to finish the year on 52. A point earned a week, so to speak.
I am currently nursing a suspected fractured scaphoid. I turned down 2 weeks in plaster as I am a single pringle and would have difficulties with showering, washing hair, washing up, getting lids off. I have a ton of kinesiology tape and a stiffened neoprene glove. I have had 5 days off the bike and was getting really grumpy. The ride was great. Extra bar tape on the right side of the handlebars does wonders too. I took my poorly hand off the handlebars, after slowing down on a couple of bits of road. Checked my bar ends just in case too. I do not want to be de gloving my fa-nuna thank you very much (still in shock about that lad).
I understand that completely. My wrist and hand are shot to hell anyway are are useless. I am unlikely to make it worse.Be careful not to be a martyr, you may struggle but if you need 2 weeks in plaster, 2 weeks it really should be. Take care.
