finger injury 2-Jun-2004 At 8:18:39 PM julian

hey rod, yeh i would disagree with that for a couple of reasons. you actually have them in your own entry. A) your finger still hurt anyway, B) it hurt for a long time, and C) the tape results in loss of function. this last one is good in that it prevents you from doing aggravating activity (if applied correctly), but bad if it creates potentially problematic biomechanics, which will cause subsequent injury somewhere else. budding taping is one that, in my view, does just that: predisposes to further injury. there are techniques which are less problematic.

always use pain as an idicator of the damage you are doing: more pain, more damage. tape can certainly be used in the process of rehab, just not to give strength as it were to an injured pully, much less a ruptured one. you have to let it heal first.

that said, i am glad yours is all good now and you are back at it.

regards
julian
