Hand crushed

2018-07-18 22:23:55
Hello, a gentleman shook my hand a week ago and it has been hurting since. The way he did it though was he squeezed my hand very hard to where I could feel my joints grind together. I now cannot make a fist and I cannot bend my fingers back. Simple tasks have been made difficult since.
