Fingertip skin gone missing 14-Dec-2004 At 9:25:34 PM cheesehead

Totally - it needs rest boy.
If you NEED to use it, make a 'band aid' with finger tape. It's bound to come off, but it a)gives a little protection in the meantime b) inspires you to not (despires?) use that finger so much, as it no longer has the dexterity, friction or feel.

No idea about the white dot thingies - possibly some fine grit stuck in there, which is retarding healing? would expect it to me more inflamed though if that were the case.

Likewise, has anyone got top tips for speeding recovery/getting over it when you cut your nails too short and the finger nail interface whatesmy name splits? Superglue STINGS but seems like the best "I MUST climb NOW" fix
NB- Apparently that's what superglue was originally designed for - in-the-field first aid. There's always a tube of it in my first aid kit.
