Long story short, I was sucker punched by a girls ex-b/f while out downtown drinking. Ended up connecting with a jab before shooting a double leg takedown, ended up in side control, 3-4 punches later he was unconscious and I look at my right hand to see this
This was after chunks of his tooth were removed from my hand.
I was stiched up, given pain killers and sent on my way.
Fast forward 72 HORRIBLE hours later, the wound burst open, due to pressure from the puss in my hand. It had become infected, I was rushed to a hand specialist to undergo surgery the next day. I over heard one of the surgeons say "Well we'll see if he can keep his middle finger, we might have to amputate it". One of the worst days in my life.
Post Surgery
After the drainage band was taken off
One month later after having to take THE WORST antibiotics that made me feel like I had a hangover from drinking well liquor and also having to pack my own wound, this was the result
All the credit goes to my physical therapist who never once gave up hope that my hand would be at 100% again one day. I can say it will never be the same as it was before the injury, but I'm at a solid 95%.

Now I'm back doing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and I have an amateur MMA fight on Sept. 17th.
