Same here! I thought I was just some kind of weirdo.
Also, it takes most of us GIAORTERs two hands to fap…

I have some tingling but it’s been 14 months so I assume that’s been long enough to call it shot
That's what the Dr told me - if there is damage to a nerve from this it's like a mm/month or something (may be off on that) to repair itself.
Just curious how you knew to have something like that done. Did your hand swell up or something beforehand?
Best of luck. Will be curious to hear your updates. At some point I've got a bunch of fingers, on both hands, with Depuytrens contractures that are going to have to be dealt with.
So after I posted what spurred this is realized I skipped over that affliction. Never heard of it before but seems not uncommon here on HORT. Hoping for the best for you guys.
Yeah, in some cases it can be dealt with via injections or relatively easy localized cutting of tendon to release the finger. So I went to see a hand surgeon at one point about it. She starts by saying the words that I thought they taught you not to lead with in first year of medical school: "oh this is interesting." Then she starts using phrases like "have a look around" and "skin grafts". So I decided to wait a bit.
My first surgery went really well. I am only 32 and my left hand ring finger was about 45 degrees. Lots of buildup in the palm and knuckles. I also have knuckle pads. My hand now goes flat on a table but it’s pretty stiff. Nothing they can do about the knuckle pads. Therapy is very tough and honestly is kinda mentally tough too just not being able to use your hand for a while. I have my other hand scheduled for the 27th here so get to do it all over again
My wife’s cousin did the injections. He was pleased with it but said it was the most painful thing in his life. And they hit it in several spots.
Find a specialist that deals with dupuytrens all the time
My fingers won’t go flat. Only get to about 45 degrees so it makes every day tasks more difficult. I can’t lay my hand flat on a table. I feel it’s also messing up my knuckles and pulling them sideways.
Amen. Now that I’ve had one for a couple years, I find it pretty disgusting not to use one.
My issue was a little different. It was a mass that had built up under a finger. Kinda like this:
But directly on the underside of the finger, rather than off to the side. It never bothered me, just looked weird. I thought the procedure would've been a lot simpler, but I guess because of where it was, and that it might be surrounding the nerve, it became a little bigger deal.
"Depuytrens contractures" sound way worse and more debilitating. Hopefully that's something you can get taken care of.
** Edited to add: I'm not sure what's going on with that guy's alien pinky finger in the photo, but he should get that looked at also!!
Maybe it’s just me, but I became an ambidextrous fapper ~96 hours after discovering internet porn due to the mouse.
I broke my dominant arm in high school. Having a cast sucked. Some of the problems…
Using a fork or spoon.
Tying shoes.
Zipping pants.
Flossing teeth.
Wiping dat ass.
This was prior to widespread keyboarding, so writing papers.
BTW, good to hear that is wasn’t hand guinira or the herps.
True dat. Nose picking is kinda sloppy also, a guy told me.
No shit. I am a candidate for that as well. Did you look into injections at all prior? How has your recovery gone?
Would you do it again based on the results?
hopefully that wasn't your bean flickin hand, get well soon!
It was first thought to be a Northern European thingy, and called the Viking Disease. Google that thing. Turns out it is a worldwide issue, more so with males.
Mine accelerated with an injury due to a fall that ripped the web between my left pinky and ring finger. Nearly tore my pinky off, 9 stitches, no fracture. Hurt like a mutha scratcher.
This caused further damage to an earlier injury due to a cut on my palm. Hand Doc said that this thing “has an attitude and I pissed it off” which inflamed the problem. I have no loss of strentgh, only minor pain, but issues weirdly enough with using the pinky on a keyboard. The finger is kicked out and misses the a,q, and z.
He said that physical therapy and exercise would not change things and to give him a call in six months if I wanted to do surgery. His caution was that in some 10% of cases, surgery would actually “piss the thing off” and cause further infraction (drawing inward) of the fingers.
How ‘boutcha @CJ Beat Hard ?
Keegan Murray is left handed and just broke the NBA rookie 3-point record using his right hand,
And you? You can’t even wipe you own ass.

I would be screwed too. Feel better OP. And have a bidet installed ASAP.
Ts & Ps to your balls and hoping they don't explode from the resulting pressure buildup.
Have heard that Dupuytrens affects to some degree approx. 20% of individuals of northern European descent,.. Some of the recognizable afflicted that I'm aware of would be Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher, John Elway...
Actually, it has shown to be widespread in other places, such as Northern Africa.
Pretty wild thingy.
