I appear to have chipped my scaphoid bone (would love to pretend that it was in a dramatic motorcycle-related injury, but I just slipped on a wooden floor that had frictional resistance of the Cresta Run) and am currently encased in plaster from base of fingers to just below the elbow. I can just about play the tenor still but you can imagine that the r.h. palm keys are a sod, and as the scaphoid is at the base of the thumb, I try not to put too much weight through it. Even so after 15 minutes it's aching badly enough for it to feel sensible to stop. I am dreading seeing the specialist and having him tell me to stop playing for 6 weeks or whatever.
Has anyone here had experience of this injury?
