Pulley Recovery
Hi All, Mike encouraged me to share about my pulley injury. Please know this is my experience and does not replace visiting a doctor. I am very lucky to have a PT who is also a climber who owns a special ultrasound for hands. It was determined that I had a Class 3 rupture of my A2 pulley after we looked at it with the ultrasound. Luckily, it was not more as the next grade up requires surgery. I am following the recovery steps by Dr. Jared Vagy. https://theclimbingdoctor.com/how-to-rehab-a-climbing-pulley-injury/
Although I like his approach to conservatively loading the tendon sooner than most other rehabs protocols. I used this site to make my splint. https://www.rocknsport.com/splints-for-finger-injuries I think it is more straightforward forward, and they send you everything but the Leukotape.
Saturday will be 6 weeks from the injury, and I am stoked to get back to climbing soon.
