Question

Hand crushed

Asked for Female, 27 Years

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.
