One of my aunts once dislocated her thumb trying to lever out the still-partially-frozen turkey drumsticks from under the little flap of skin that holds them together on the turkey, and then when she snapped upright with the pain of the dislocation, banged her head on the corner of the open cupboard door beside her and knocked herself out.

So even protein is hazardous She's fine now (we think -- but then, who really knows?)

Hope that your poor finger makes a full recovery. It must be very painful.
