About 2 weeks ago, I damaged my middle finger while bicycling...
I reached down to adjust the sensor on the front fork, and my hand went into the spoke. Yes I was moving at about 20 mph...
OK, enough with the laughing.
The finger was pretty well swollen up, and MOST of the swelling has gone down, but middle joint is still swelled on one side. I was taking Naproxen last week. I forgot to take it with me to Mexico, so I was dipping into my emergency Celebrex stash. The swelling pretty much went down, almost away.
I've been back in the US now for 4 days and back on taking the Naproxen. The swelling seems to be returning. I can't bend the find fully.
Is there something better about the Celebrex vs. the Naproxen? Is one better for joints than the other? Are these questions getting annoying? Will our hero survive until one of the doctors takes pity on him and answers his questions?
Tune in next time for:
Bigger middle fingers or he's a Swell guy...
