Hey, maybe if Obama's healthcare reform goes through, you'll be covered. ![Rolleyes](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/rolleyes.gif)
Lol, no. But St. John's isn't bad. I would definitely have it checked out. I've had Boxer's Fracture before, and it looked like that. Also, what part of Webster do you live in?

You need an xray asap, you would be surprised at how quick bones can start healing, although i think you will be fine. 5th metcarpal is the WORST of them to heal incorrectly due to the amount of rom it has compared to the others.

Yeah no health insurance does suck in situations like that. I guess you could always just assume its broke go buy you cast or something... just throwing it out there. Also it doesn't really look broken to me just swollen really bad. Maybe cracked a bone a little bit?

i agree it looks like a boxers fx. i would get it reset before it does grow back wrong. if it does they will have to rebreak it and set it correctly which will be the same pain all over. so GET OFF TECH AND GET YOUR *** TO THE ER!!!

^ you a medic?
I plan on going to school for firefighting but get my EMT first so i can ride in a box while going to school. I went through Pasadena's academy but their **** is volunteer, but free schooling even though it doesnt count as real schooling

Yeah probably. I got into a fight with a couple kids a long time and broke my hand. Is the pain constant? That's pretty much how you know. I broke my arm(small fracture) also and it had the same constant pain as when I broke my hand.. Didn't really hurt that bad but the pain just wouldn't go away. Make sure you get an X-Ray soon, your growth plates are in that part of your hand.
You will get half a cast with the bandage wrap to hold it in place so you can still take it off if you need.

X-Rays are very expensive. Have you actually ever looked at a medical bill?
