Oh, nice 3rd degree pics. Heavly swolen. That's what happens when you don't walk it off the next day.

I can walk now, go up stairs (but not down), and flex it abit now. It's getting better by the moment. When I sprained it, I had to walk myself over 1000 feet to get to a first aid station. It sucked. Bad.

Heheh, nothing beats the crackling sound of a bone breaking, except perhaps looking down at the sudden excruciating pain and seeing a second knuckle appear under the skin at the end of your forearm just before the wrist

I was 12 when I broke my right arm in two places just short of the wrist joint, whilst skateboarding. Snapped the ulna right through and fractured the radius halfway.
And if I close my eyes I can still hear the noise it made nearly 20 years later...
It healed well but it aches on occasion in the joint of my radius/ulna/wrist.
