i cannot type much anymore due to my hand damage so i will be terse for the time being.
hand pain got worse again despite rest/ice/compression/etc. would not heal past certain point.
went to doc a 2nd time a few days ago, thinks its likely a form of carpal tunnel, he prescribed me a strong anti-inflammatory medication and an arthritis gel to use for the pain, will see if improvements happen in 1 month, otherwise have to go back and try more extreme treatment.
there is so much art i want to draw, i havent been able to fcreate for about 4 months now and i am miserable and trying to keep patient. i would not wish this fate on any artist
