Chopsaw injury...

[John Benton]

Further to me revealing that I tried to cut my arm off on chopsaw last Friday, the dressing is now off and here is the offending wound

 

[Sean SML Tiling]

Thats a cracking war wound John. Has it affected you much?

 

[John Benton]

Was working opposite a hospital and I went over to A&E, seen straightaway, stitched up and back at work hanging a door within an hour and a half.

Trust me though, it went in deep and it hurt, so did the anaesthetic (6 injections). No damage to tendons nerves guiders etc was on outside of my forearm not inside.

Its just a pain having to wear a plastic elasticated sleeve in shower to keep it dry

 

[Protilers]

all the best
