Galgum said:Last year I had internal bleeding on my hand and the middle knuckle swelled up to the size of a baseball. It took about a year to heal, always hurt when I hit stuff, punching bags included, and if I punch anything, it damn near instantly swelled up. Thankfully, it's fully healed now, I just used it the other day to deck my brother because he threw a chair across the room. Works beautifully =)
lol, funny these two posts... I have the same problem. I was showing this guy who wanted to learn some stuff, how to throw an uppercut using more of his body, and didnt have anything else to throw on but the wall... which was a makeshift mat-room made inside an old racquetball court. Wearing 4 oz. grappling gloves, I deomonstrated on the wall pretty hard, thinking it would give a LOT more than it did, and I still (6 months later) can't really hit the heavy bag much without the middle knuckle hurting like hell. Was a bitch at the time trying to act like my hand didn't hurt when it was throbbing, hehe.
