a medical mystery

i was playing football last night and the worst thing that could possibly happen, happened! i was only in goal for 5mins and i must have made about 3 saves.. take the gloves off and my middle finger on my left hand is bend down (as if i was double jointed)... i didn't feel any pain but i couldn't close my hand, to be honest at the time, i was slightly confused about it as i dint even remember it happening but it visually looked broken.. i carried on playing as best i could, obviously a little distracted...

after the game i did the sensible thing and walked down to MRI to get it checked out spent next few hours with the drunks and the violent in the hospital.. had an x-ray or 2 and was seen by a doctor, strange thing tho, nothing... x-ray shows up as fine, well my hand visually doesn't look fine, no breaks or dislocations.. i cant understand it! my finger wasn't that shape before i went in net and i cant close my fist so obviously their must be something wrong with it! but according to the doctor it is fine!

gotta go next week and get it checked out again, right now its in a brace and hurting a tiny bit but its being kept straight, lets hope by next Wednesday it heals in that possession otherwise i don't know what we are going to do as we have a gig!

anyway its somewhat of a mystery as my finger just doesn't bend that way!
