Hi , I cut the flexor tendon in the bottom of the left index finger about 32 years ago . No problems now . Took a LONG time to get back to near normal . I was in my teens and pretty ornery so I pushed it . It still took months if I remember correctly . I had two injuries to that finger in that year though . I was recovering from breaking that finger 1/8" from the palm joint and pushing the bone from the inside of the finger into the back of my hand just under the skin . My finger was about 1/2" long with the fingernail right up next to the knuckle . It didn't hurt much . I wrecked my motorcycle for the broken finger . One of those over the handle bars and the finger gets stuck under the clutch lever as you go over . The finger isn't straight with the rest of the fingers , it's rotated a little towards the second finger so it bends over the top of it when I make a fist unless I make sure it's up against the side of it . That one took about 2-1/2 months to heal and the the month I got it out of the cast is about when I cut the tendon . It seems doctors will tell you to expect the worst so you will push it . I guess I did it right . The only problem now is the artheritis is getting to it faster than the other index finger . Good luck and push it till it hurts so bad you sweat . Really ! Good luck ...Randy

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'.
