My injury happened over 3 months ago. I fell when bouldering from 2-3m and landed badly on my left hand which made my hand and fingers to bend over their natural position quite badly. Hand did swell up big time for the flollowing 3-4 days and was painful. X-rays and doctor said both that nothing was broken but ligaments/tendons propably had if not torn apart then streched bad. I had pause from climbing for 3 months and did only light weight training after 1.5 months when it felt a bit possible. Now after almost 4months my gripping power on the injured hand is maybe 40% compared to healthy right one.. Any opinion / experiences on the subject? Is this supposed to take this long to recover? I am 30 yrs and was projecting 7C when injury happened. Now I can barely climb 6C :) best -T
Falling on out stretched hand - recovery ?
