Never run with your keys in your hand...

I pulled on it and it wouldn't come out. It just stretched the palm of my hand. Finally, I just looked at my headliner and yanked. I didn't throw up but, the thought sure crossed my mind!

It was stuck deep enough that, at first I just thought it was one of my pad lock keys. Boy was I ever wrong! Now, my fingers don't want to straighten out for nothing!

u need to get that checked capt. worked in ER as nurse and seen plenty of punctures that were tendon related or muscle tears. PM Dr. Jay. I wouldnt F around with this especially bc your job requires you to use your hands.

They'll straighten. It just hurts like heck! Pretty sure my hand won't be worth a crap for a few days.

You don't need to worry bout tendon being cut there, they run inline with the metacarpal bones. but you basically did a blunt dissection of your lumbricles and interoceous muscles. Be thinking when was the last tetnus shout and how much crap was on your skin and that key when you drove it in there. You need to go in and get it cleaned out and some antibiotic/ tetnus . You cant afford what can happen in your line of work.
