In reply to alx: Vaguely, if i press really hard... but its definitely a more generalised pain than a sharp pin point area - its really weird, I wrote my initial post maybe an hour or two after getting back from the wall and it really really hurt, sat down.. watched a film and the pain is still there, but really not that bad ( i can make a fist with ease and could prob dead hang with no probs - i wont)...
Perhaps its wishful thinking but this kinda leads me to believe that it may just be a strain and that climbing really aggravated it... Were your symptoms similar? When I injured my finger it hurt for 24 hours a day.
It wasn't that long ago either and took 8 weeks before i could climb properly again and another 4 before i was back to my regular level... it was just starting to come together again
can't bare going through that again
