The' broken middle finger' is a really common injury!!

I've got one and the middle joint is thickened and the finger is
crooked and can't straighten out completely.......I wonder how many
people out there have this injury?? Please respond if you do....
A friend of mine has also got it....

I got mine through holding on to a lungeline when I should have let
go (the stallion was being lunged in an enclused field) when he
decided to run off bucking and farting!!

Cheers !
