Hello, this is pain, I have a message for your daughter. Tell her to stop biting her fingers. On Christmas Eve Day we had a lovely breakfast made by Steve and Karen and boys that was outstanding - Dennis looked at my daughter's finger and said it should be taken care of immediately. So, we loaded her up and Debi and I went along.
On the way, Den called his friend Beth, hand specialist for the Phx Suns and asked her a few questions about the procedure. After a few minutes he began to back-pedal and say, "No, No, No, I don't want you to do that." She talked him into letting her do the procedure because in her words, "I pictures that TV commerical where the guy is on the phone with a doctor and the doctor is telling the guy, '...three centimeters to the left should be your appendix' to which the patient asks, '...shouldn't you be doing this...'
Great Lady!!! She put my daughter at ease and made the whole procedure seem like a hobby instead of the job she does everyday.
I got to look over Beth's shoulder. Dennis assisted which was kinda funny because he is usually in the surgeon's role. The procedure went perfectly. Her hand released about 3cc's of pus. For a finger, that was a bunch! The fingernail was removed about 1/3 the way in and then it was dressed. My daughter felt better already. The soreness related to the fluid under pressure in her finger was releaved and so was she.
