When I got home from a long day of gardening around beehives at work yesterday, I went to strum a little before dinner and was met with an intensely focused pain in the flesh of my index finger.
Lo and behold, I discovered I had a ~.5cm milk thistle spine imbedded in my finger. The angle shown in the photo is the exact angle it had entered my finger, so its whole length went straight into the fleshy pad.
It came out with some work, but was totally unnoticed by me until that first strum!
Finger feels almost back to normal, but wowee, what an unpleasant surprise that was. I’m sure this is not the worst thing to have happened to someone here, but thought you all would relate best. :shaka:
