Last Saturday afternoon I was working on a project involving a vise, and injured my hand. I didn't think the injury was severe, it involved only soft tissue, but my hand thought otherwise and revolted. The bottom picture is the third day. It has been interesting to watch my corpse-like hand go through the colors and shapes of the healing process. The top picture is the fifth day. Today it is still red, but the swelling is nearly completely gone and the color is slowly returning to normal. How great it is that our bodies know what to do. I learned a great lesson, too, about what NOT to do, next time...
