Suggest Treatment For Hand Injury
Hey around 3 years ago i cut the top of my hand and the doctor stiched me up missed all the main nerves and what not. But there is no feeling round the area and off late when running fingers over it feels like the flesh under the scar is disolving and feels like a hole. (if that makes sense.) there is a little pain when touched in diffrent spots of the hand.
Should i see a doctor.
