Just came back from the doctor. Apparently when there's no swelling, it's unlikely that there are any broken bones, so it's probably a sprain, and he didn't do an x-ray. On the other hand, sometimes the bone can be broken without any swelling, so I am to use my hand as little as possible, and if the pain doesn't go away within the next days, I have to go for an x-ray.

He did a very good job of locating the offending bone. Ouch! It wasn't around the joints as I thought, but more in the middle of the hand.

And he's an animal lover:
Doc: How did it happen?
Me: I fell over the dog.
Doc: Big dog?
Me: Puppy.
Doc: Oh! Is it okay?

Also had my bloodpressure taken since I haven't had it done since before I moved to Switzerland. 110/82, which according to him is very good.

Thank you. I'm hoping for a speedy recover too. I never realised how much I use my left hand.

yep, jolly nice b.p.

That's what I thought about the swelling. I hope it stops hurting after more rest.

He's recently graduated and doing his rounds on different clinics etc. I'd never met him before, but he seemed really nice. :)
